حول هذه الوظيفة
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) is seeking a consultant to develop Good Practice Guidelines for landscape scale carbon dioxide emission observations and monitoring. The role involves preparing an outline, organizing a writing team, coordinating workshops, and managing the drafting and review process of the guidelines. The consultant will work with the IG3IS steering committee and expert community to ensure the document meets scientific standards and is suitable for decision-making at various scales. The guidelines will focus on forestry and greenhouse gas emission quantification methodologies. The position requires extensive experience in greenhouse gas research, atmospheric composition, and international project implementation.

Description
Background
The Integrated Global Greenhouse Gas Information System (IG3IS) is one of the “science-for-services” initiatives of the GAW Programme. IG3IS engages large scientific and practitioner communities to enhance the capacity of WMO member countries and their subnational entities to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in targeted areas and track progress toward their reduction goals following consistent methodologies based on the best available science. NASA recognizes the importance of IG3IS and in September 2023 approved a research grant to further advance IG3IS implementation through development of methodologies and publication of good practices for greenhouse gas emission quantification for decision-making at global, national, regional, city scales and for specific sectors. The guidelines on the landscape scale carbon dioxide emissions and removals quantification with the focus on forestry are one of the deliverables under this NASA grant.
