The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is in the process of developing a Special Report on Climate Change and Land (SRCCL), which is scheduled for completion in August 2019.

IPCC Working Group III (Mitigation), which is managing the production of the report, is seeking highly motivated individuals to act as volunteer chapter scientists to support author teams with technical aspects of chapter development. This may include fact checking, reference checking, confirming the completeness of responses to reviewer comments, and assisting with figures and tables. The positions will provide volunteers with the opportunity to get involved in the IPCC process and to help ensure the quality and robustness of an important IPCC product.

Chapter scientists will participate on a voluntary basis and will not be employees of the IPCC, or IPCC Working Group III, and will be expected to work from their home institutions.
