Overview:
In order to improve the existing databases and to carry out the research of mezo-scale and
micro-scale climate systems, the number of measure points for hydro-meteorological parameters
need to be increased. Modernization of the hydro-meteorological network for information
exchange archives and publication is needed, as well as establishment and renewal of observations
that are not yet in function.
It is necessary to carry out permanent activities for systematic observation and monitoring of
GHG emissions and their reductions. For this purpose a capacity building is projected within the
Ministry of Environment and Physical Planning, through opening a permanent office within the
Ministry in order to coordinate and initiate activities at national level.
Background and rationale:
The Republic of Macedonia ratified the UNFCCC on December 04, 1997. As Party to the
Convention, the country has committed to produce the First National Communication. It allowed
development of expertise in each sector involved in the preparation. It is prepared following the
guidelines adopted by CoP for preparation of national communications by Parties not included
in Annex I to the Convention.
