This volume contains a selection of scientific papers which were
presented at an international workshop on the impacts of climatic
variability held in Wengen, Switzerland, September 1997. For the
first time, an assessment is made of the interactions between
physical and biological elements of the Earth System on the basis
of shifts in extreme climatic conditions, rather than simply
changes in mean atmospheric conditions which research has tended to
focus on until recently. Natural ecosystems and forests are typical
examples of systems which, while constrained within certain ranges
of mean climate, can undergo rapid and often irreversible damage in
the face of short-lived but intense extreme events.
