Climate Policy
THE LEADING INTERNATIONAL, PEER-REVIEWED JOURNAL ON RESPONSES TO CLIMATE CHANGE
Climate Policy presents a wide range of refereed research and analysis that addresses the broad spectrum of policy issues raised by the prospect of changes in the global climate. It addresses both the mitigation of, and adaptation to, climate change. It also provides a forum for the communication of research, analysis, review, and discussion of responses to climate change, including issues related to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, the Kyoto Protocol and the negotiation of associated policy instruments. The journal makes complex, policy-related analysis of climate change issues accessible to a wide policy audience and facilitates debate between the diverse constituencies now involved in the development of climate policy.

Analysis of mitigation or adaptation policies
Studies of implementation and prospects in different countries and/or sectors
Applications of integrated assessment to specific policy issues
