Glossary

This glossary is not intended to provide a general definition of the terms selected but rather to give an explanation of the meaning of those terms as employed in climatology. The glossary of the IPCC 2007 (http://www.ipcc.ch/pdf/assessment-report/ar4/wg1/ar4-wg1-annexes.pdf) and Wikipedia, the free encyclopaedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page) were very helpful in preparing it. We encourage the reader to refer to these sources for more information.
