Dear IROWG,
We are pleased to announce that the IROWG report responding to the WGIII action item assigned to IROWG is now available online.
IROWG leadership presented the report at the WGIII Intersessional Meeting #2 on November 12, 2026. The presentation was developed based on inputs from the IROWG-11 plenary discussion, followed by further discussions with subgroup leads and members of the IROWG community.
The discussions at IROWG-11, together with the updated study results and analyses, provided a solid body of evidence to support the responses and recommendations presented to WGIII. With this submission and presentation, IROWG has completed its response to the WGIII action item.
We sincerely appreciate everyone in the IROWG community who contributed their time, expertise, and thoughtful input to this effort. While this concludes the action item, some of the topics and activities initiated through this community consultation may be carried forward within IROWG. We encourage continued discussion and collaboration as we build on this work. Should WGIII or CGMS request further information or follow-up on any of the topics addressed, IROWG leadership will work with the relevant subgroup leads and the broader IROWG community to provide the necessary input and support.
For reference:
- Original call for community contributions: The original announcement is available in the announcement archive, with a copy here.
- Final presentation to WGIII: Available on the IROWG Documents page, under IROWG-11 / CGMS54.
- The IROWG-11 meeting minutes are under review and will be available in early December.
Thank you again to everyone who contributed to this collective effort.
