Independent assessment of the systems, models, methodologies, controls and data behind climate-related assertions.

- Assessment of climate-data systems and information flows
- Review of models, methodologies and key assumptions
- Evaluation of controls, calculations and supporting evidence
- Assessment of defined climate-related assertions
