Summary:

Full Report

The report synthesizes some of the policy-relevant climate science published since the close-off of material for the last IPCC report (AR4). It serves as a handbook of science updates that supplements the AR4 in time for Copenhagen in December 2009, and any national or international climate change policy negotiations that follow.

The report covers the range of topics evaluated by Working Group I of the IPCC, namely the Physical Science Basis.
