Climate prediction is similar to numerical weather prediction, but the forecasts are for longer periods. Special numerical models are used to alter trace atmospheric gases (carbon dioxide and methane, for example), sea ice and glacier cover, changes in incoming solar radiation, and a host of other parameters. The following climate prediction datasets are avilable. GM2 Global Coupled Climate Models consist of two climate models, which were designed to model the changes in climate over the past century and into the 21st century.

The Technology Needs Assessment (TNA) is a comprehensive project which assists developing country parties to the UNFCCC to determine their technology priorities for the mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions and adaptation to climate change. The project is implemented by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and their partnership with Technical University of Denmark (DTU) on behalf of the Global Environment Facility (GEF).

In recent years, countries around the world, including Japan, have witnessed the frequent occurrence of disasters such as torrential rains and flooding events arising as a result of global warming and earthquakes. This has raised the importance of taking prevention measures against various forms of disasters. In the event of such large-scale disasters, preventing and minimizing damage is of the utmost importance. This can be done through enhancing the voluntary disaster prevention capability of each region, and through self-help and mutual assistance.

The Biodiversity Consultancy (TBC) team is notable for hands-on biodiversity expertise developed through a broad range of backgrounds, including international conservation NGOs, research, policy development and corporate social responsibility. Most of their consultants have gained at least 10 years in these fields before joining TBC.

weAdapt facilitates preparation of National Adaptation Programmes of Action through sharing of knowledge, pro bono and retainer services for Least Developed Countries (LDCs). The LDCs identify and prioritise their most "urgent and immediate needs to adapt to climate change". An LDC fund can then allocate funds for implementation of high priority projects. UNFCCC established the National Adaptation Programme of Action (NAPA) process as a way to facilitate adaptation planning in least developed countries (LDCs) and other development countries.

Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMA) refer to any action that reduces emissions in developing countries and is prepared under the umbrella of a national governmental initiative. They can be policies directed at transformational change within an economic sector, or actions across sectors for a broader national focus. NAMAs are supported and enabled by technology, financing, and capacity-building and are aimed at achieving a reduction in emissions relative to 'business as usual' emissions in 2020.
