How credible are the findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and how does climate research work in practice on a research vessel?

The two contributions by Bernd Siebenhüner and Oliver Wurl are dedicated to these questions. In his input, Bernd Siebenhüner explains how the reports of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) come about and their political significance. Oliver Wurl will be connected live from the research vessel "Falkor" in the Pacific, where he is currently investigating interactions between the oceans and the atmosphere using the Pacific as an example. He will show how this works in practice in a video link-up.
