On Saturday, the second Joint Session of IPCC Working Groups (WGs) I and II continued consideration of the Summary for Policymakers (SPM) of the Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate (SROCC). Delegates met in morning, afternoon, evening and night sessions to discuss specific paragraphs in the section on observed changes and impacts, including on observed physical changes. They also addressed relevant figures in the text.
