Database server

      International and multidisciplinary information is necessary for the promotion of researches on scientific understanding, future prediction, and impact assessment of global environmental changes. In addition, these issues, such as global warming, are being recognized and discussed as problems which are directly related to general public. Therefore, it is also required to provide results and consequences of scientific researches on global environmental changes not only to scientists but also to general public.

      In this context, Center for Global Environmental Research(CGER) is promoting Global Environmental Database Project in which various information on global environment are collected, processed, archived, and provided to Japanese and foreign researchers as well as general public.

      CGER Global Environmental Database Project consists of following five sub-projects :

1. Maintenance, management, and improvement of CGER Web/database server system.
2. Development of databases for observational data and research output from CGER Global Environmental Monitoring Project and their releases to general public.
3. Development of social science databases with priority to global warming.
4. Development of tools which facilitate analysis of global environmental data
5. International cooperation and other related activities

      The information services related to Global Environment Database Project are mainly provided from this (http://db.cger.nies.go.jp/) and related websites. This website is developed and operated at the above-mentioned database server system.
