Topics for Discussion • One of the GFCS implementation priorities identified by the HLT: Upgrading baseline national capacities for climate services • Current status of the NMHSs in delivering and promoting the use of climate products and services • Possible approaches to mainstream operational climate products and services by the NMHSs, particularly in the developing countries • Value in developing and adopting commonly agreed best practices both in the delivery and communicating the climate information.

  3. Key Questions • What is the current status of the provision of climate information within the operational activities of NMHSs, vis-à-vis weather information? • What is the operational infrastructure/coordination required (including links to global/regional sources)? • What are the potential mechanisms for coordinating operational climate activities at the national level, including approaches towards National Climate Outlook Forums (NCOFs)? • What are competencies and skills required for operational climate activities? • What is the scope and content of a Climate Information and Prediction Services (CLIPS) Toolbox that can be developed and updated to promote best practices? • What is the user liaison and communication strategy to be adopted at the national level to improve the use of climate information in decision making for risk management and adaptation? • How can the uncertainties in climate information be communicated?
