the duration of an Assessment cycle (5-6
years). They shall be experts in the field
of climate change and all regions are to
be represented in the IPCC Bureau. The Bureau
is chaired by the Chair of the IPCC and
is composed of the Co-Chairs of the three
IPCC Working Groups and the Task Force Bureau
on National Greenhouse Gas Inventories,
the IPCC Vice-Chairs and the Vice-Chairs
of the Working Groups.
