9901551SpilhausSTART will encourage and promote increased participation byscientists and research institutions of developing countries inglobal change research research supportive of the World ClimateResearch Programme (WCRP), especially its emerging ClimateVariability study (CLIVAR); the International Geosphere-BiosphereProgramme (IGBP); and the International Human Dimensions Program(IHDP). Specific START activities over a five-year period willfocus on: climate variability and change and their impacts,especially on water resources, ecosystems, and biodiversity in thelands of the Kalahari region; modelling of the Asian monsoon systemwith special emphasis on Asian ecosystems; pilot studies of therelationship between climate variability and agriculturalproductivity in sub-Saharan and tropical Africa and Southeast Asia;changing land use and climate variability and their impact on waterresources and river inputs to coastal areas in Southeast Asia;African contributions to chemical changes in the atmosphere throughbiomass burning and desertification; acid deposition and healtheffects of aerosols; greenhouse gas emissions related to land useand land cover change; and industrial transformations and theirrelationship to sustainability. Capacity building will be promotedthrough scientific planning and training workshops and relatedactivities and guest lecturer programs. Efforts to improvelinkages between research and policy-making will be strengthenedthrough regional fora on science and policy; workshops on the role,planning and use of assessments; and workshops on the synthesis ofresearch results. Data management activities will includedevelopment of datasets in CD format for Southeast and TemperateEast Asia and development of a data and information managementsystem (DIS) for global change in Southeast Asia.

9901551《削减战略武器条约》将鼓励和促进发展中国家的科学家和研究机构更多地参与支持世界气候研究计划（WCRP）的全球变化研究，特别是其新兴的气候变率研究（CLIVAR）；国际地圈-生物圈方案（IGBP）；以及国际人文维度计划（IHDP）。《削减战略武器条约》在五年期间的具体活动将侧重于：气候变率和变化及其影响，特别是对喀拉哈里地区土地上的水资源、生态系统和生物多样性的影响；亚洲季风系统的模拟，特别强调亚洲的生态系统；在撒哈拉以南非洲、热带非洲和东南亚开展气候变率与农业生产力关系的试点研究；不断变化的土地利用和气候变率及其对东南亚沿海地区水资源和河流输入的影响；非洲通过燃烧生物质和沙漠化对大气化学变化的贡献；气溶胶的酸沉降及健康效应；与土地利用和土地覆盖变化有关的温室气体排放；工业转型及其与可持续发展的关系。通过科学规划、培训研讨会、相关活动和客座讲师项目，促进能力建设。将通过科学与政策区域论坛加强改善研究与决策之间联系的努力；关于评价的作用、规划和使用的讲习班；以及关于综合研究成果的研讨会。数据管理活动将包括为东南亚和温带东亚开发CD格式的数据集，以及为东南亚的全球变化开发数据和信息管理系统（DIS）。
