Hello, everyone. Thank you for coming today.
My name is Muneki Adachi.
I am talking about what and how I contribute to IPCC the 6th AR as an early carrier scientist.
(As introduced)
I had worked in energy sector in Japan for about 20 years.
Curently, I am a PhD candidate of Nagoya University Graduate school of Environmental Studies. And I research concerning energy and climate policy.
And from this summer I started studying in University of Geneva in Switzerland as scholarship fellow while being involved with IPCC the 6th AR WG3.
Q. What did you do spacificaly in energy sector?
Q.What’s your major more spacificaly?
Q.What do you stydy in Geneva?
Q. How do you manage research and IPCC work?
IPCC was established in 1988 and now is addressing the 6th assessment cycle.
Q. What is the difference from 5th assessment report?
IPCC is tackling this assesment cycle while taking the outcomes of Paris Agreement into account in accordance with other special reports.
Q. What is the relationship between IPCC and UNFCCC?
Q. How does IPCC coraborate with UNFCCC?
And AR6 Main report including WG 1,2 and3 is expected to be released by 2021.
Q.Do 3 wg coraborate each other? And How does it work?
IPCC report has many steps toward the publication.
Generaly, it’s supposed to have a 3 times of review by experts and goverments globally.
So far we are in the stage of the 1st order draft for expert review.
Q. How many auther are there in AR6WG3?
Q.What and how is expert review?
Q. How do you deal with the comment from expert?
Q. How are experts elected?
As you can see, I am involved with the working3 in charge of Mitigation of climate change as a chapter scientists.
All wg groups are addressing each report to finaly have an approval and acceptance by IPCC plenary.
Q. What is TSU in charge of ?
Q. What is the relationship between TSU and WG?
Mainly there are 2 roles as a chapter Scientist.
The first role is to provide technical and logistical support to author teams.
And the other is to assist chapter team by cross-checking, additional fact checking and reference management.
Q.What do technical and logistical support mean spacificaly?
Q.What is the most difficult of all duties as a chapter scientist?
Here, I would like to introduce how I get into the role of Chapter Scientist.
As I mentioned , I had a 20- year of career in energy sector, and 2 year of in public sector and ongoing academic experiences.
Through these experiences. I became to think pursuing the problem solving with regard to energy and climate mitigation.
Then, I found the public offering from IPCC AR6 WG3 and applied without hesitating and fortunately accepted as a scientist.
Q. Who announced a public offering?
Q. What is the requirement to apply it?
Q.What is Carbon lock-in?
Q.What is Path-dependency?
In AR6 WG3 report , there are 17 chapters.
And, roughly there are 6 dimensions such as Introduction, emittion drivers and pathway, related sectors for example energy, Institution, financial and technological driver and the context of SDGs
And I am involved with chapter 16’ Innovation, technological development and Transfer.
Q. How were those dimensions decided?
Q.Why are you involved with chapter 16?
Q. What do this chapter have the relationship with your research interest?
Q. Do you have something to do with anther chapter?
Q.What part of WG3 does ch16 edit ?
Finally, I think the experience as chapter scientist give me 3 advantages for my career.
The 1st one is to have a close relationship with my research interest.
There are a significant amount of articles related to my research. And they benefit me to acquire and deepen my scientific knowledge and understanding.
The 2nd one is to interact with authorities from all over the world. Their opinions in meetings often imply new findings and enhance my creativities.
In addition, Many kind of instruction and advises from technical support unit are really helpful to improve the skill of academic writing.
And the 3rd one is to have an experience of Scientific neutrality.
To finalise IPCC AR6, there are many stages to keep a high transparency such as expert review. And the structure is well taken into account in terms of balances between developing and developed countries. Learning this procedure is significantly beneficial for my future research.
Q. Would you tell me your latest research focus spacificaly?
Q. What is TSU?
Q.what does TSU support and advise you?
Q.Would you tell me about expert review spacificly?
Finally, I am truly honored to have an great opportunity introducing the role of early carrier scientist and myself.
Thank you very much.
