In the face of climate change, management actions are important tool for ecosystem conservation – we need to know if local and global efforts are effective or not – This is very crucial for the future of life in earth. It is only important to take action, it is more important to see the impact and whether we are doing the right thing and whether it is enough to safe lives and maintain ecosystem ability to cope with this global challenge or not?? .

It is often pointed out that IPCC AR4 put an end to the debate on “reality” of global change. The role of climate models will accordingly be changed. A possible direction is to utilize model results as bases for impact assessment for global change and in turn scenario development. What are the deficits and possible improvements of current climate models when applied for impact assessments? Communications among different disciplines are requited to answer this question.
