Stratospheric Processes And their Role in Climate (SPARC) is a core project of the World Climate Research Programme.
Because of the important role, which stratospheric processes play for the earth's climate system the World Climate Research Programme established this research project. The main goal of the project is to help the stratospheric research community focus on the issues of particular interest to climate.
Famous quotes containing the words processes, role and/or climate:
“All the followers of science are fully persuaded that the processes of investigation, if only pushed far enough, will give one certain solution to each question to which they can be applied.... This great law is embodied in the conception of truth and reality. The opinion which is fated to be ultimately agreed to by all who investigate is what we mean by the truth, and the object represented in this opinion is the real.”
—Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
“Women’s battle for financial equality has barely been joined, much less won. Society still traditionally assigns to woman the role of money-handler rather than money-maker, and our assigned specialty is far more likely to be home economics than financial economics.”
—Paula Nelson (b. 1945)
“Is not their climate foggy, raw, and dull,
On whom, as in despite, the sun looks pale,
Killing their fruit with frowns?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
