OVERVIEW
Atlantic SST, 1998,
“How useful are Atlantic
sea-surface temperature measurements taken during World War II”
Sea surface
temperatures (SST) are an interesting but also a difficult source for
climate research. SST taken during WWII are for example used to assume
a prolonged El Niño from 1939-1942 (see: Pacific SST, 1997),
which should be treated with considerable constraint as discussed in a
paper submitted at the Oceanology International 1998 Conference, “The
Global Ocean”, 10-13 March 1998, Brighton/UK; published in Conference
Proceedings Vol. 1, p 121-130.

“Could the Black Sea serve as model case for progress in
ocean observing, assessment and legal developments?”
The paper discusses the conditions for improving an ocean
observation system. Reliable climate research cannot do without. The
Black Sea provides a perfect place to develop the technical and legal
means. The paper was given at GKSS-Forschungszentrum and was
published by Verein der Freunde und Foerderer des
GKSS-Forschungszentrums Geesthacht e.V.; ISSN 0934-9804, 1997; Pages 58.

“Reliability of sea-surface temperature data taken during war
time in the Pacific’,
The paper
analyses the reliability of sea surface temperatures data taken in the
Pacific during WWII, which are closely related to the question over
what duration an El Niňo event took place in the time span from 1939 to
1942, which had been presented at the PACON ‘Symposium on Resource
Development’, August 8-9, 1997, Hong Kong; published in: PACON 97,
Proceedings, pp. 240-250.

“The
Tribunal on the Law of the Sea Established”
A big step toward more
consciousness was made when the International Tribunal on the Law of
the Sea was established on October 18th, 1996, in the Free and
Hanseatic City of Hamburg/Germany to which the paper welcomes,

Change 1939-1945, A matter of war at sea?”
The probability of the
impact the war at sea had during WWII on the three arctic winters
1939-42 in North Europe is outlined in a brief essay, published by the

“Legal means for understanding the marine and climate change
issue”.
The paper was
presented at a Law Conference in Honolulu 1994,
outlining the legal capability the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea
has for the understanding of oceanic-climatic matters for the
development and use of marine technology and research. Published in:

“Solving
quandary of climate by law and the sea: viewpoint”.
It is argued that more
attention to the oceans on climatic change issues should be paid and
that the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea is the perfect
legal mean to organise it among all nations. Published by the Russian
‘Peace to the Ocean’ Committee, Moscow 1994, 2 pages.

The UN Convention on
the Law of the Sea was soon to enter into force and it was hoped that
it would increase the understanding of the importance of the oceans, is
expressed by the paper, published by L.O.S. Lieder, Professional

“Warming up – Science or climate”.
The 1992 Earth Summit
in Rio de Janeiro brought political leaders together on global
environmental issues giving science a boost, while the potential of the
UN Convention on the Law of the Sea received too little attention is
argued in the brief paper, published by L.O.S. Lieder, Professional

Climate, GKSS, 1992
“Conditions necessary for the protection
of world climate”.
The paper, given as
lecture at GKSS Forschungszentrum (Germany), covers a wide range on how
the author understands that “climate works”, why the UN ‘Climate Change
Convention’ should never have been adopted in the first place, and that
an appropriate legal instrument to understand and protect the global
climate is the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea. Published
