In these circumstances, it is scarcely surprising that there is evidence of international and interdisciplinary dispute, as Terney (1989) has chronicled in regard to IGBP.

In giving the 1990 Robens Coal Science Lecture at the Royal Institution, Sir John Mason (a former Director of the Meteorological Office) urged caution in interpreting the results of the massive atmospheric and oceanic modelling exercises; as the equilibrium models are refined to take account of the thermal lag in oceans, etc., lower values of predicted changes are likely.
In general, the research work of the international groups of scientists, including those involved in the Inter-Governmental Committee and in the UK's Inter-Agency Committee on Global Environmental Change, has progressively reduced the magnitude of the predicted effects of, for example, global warming.
Thus, while almost all scientists are β€” at the time of writing β€” convinced from the evidence that change in climate is under way and that regional effects may be much greater than the global average, the magnitude of the latter is now thought likely to be about half of what was predicted only 5 years ago.

They too contain useful material on, for instance, the locations of sites, though individual site licences must be consulted for details of what each is permitted to take in the way of hazardous wastes.
Each WRA is required to produce a waste disposal plan and these are starting to appear.
What is not known is information on the locations of former sites, at which quite toxic materials may have been dumped, though recent work by Egger (1989) in Austria has mapped a vast number of such sites.

For 1987 the statistics show that there were some 20,000 accidental deaths, of which some 7,000 occurred in the home, 6,000 at work, and 5,000 on the roads.
Although many deaths arise from natural causes, and many others from illnesses and diseases, each year sees a large number of deaths caused by β€˜ accidents ’, and also a number caused by acts or omissions which amount to some form of homicide in English law.
By comparison, the number of deaths recorded as criminal homicide was 600, which includes all the murders and manslaughters.

From the tracks alone it is possible to be certain of the bipedal stance of certain dinosaurs, and to measure their stride.
The sediments themselves may have preserved some of the tracks left by the animal (p. 20) to give direct evidence of its past activities.
The character of the rocks, and their setting in the past geography at the time when they accumulated, diagnoses the climatic setting in which the extinct fauna lived, and climate imposes certain restraints on possible modes of life.

One interesting example of a GIS approach to flood damage estimation is the ANUFLOOD package which was developed in the early 1980s following detailed flood damage studies for flood-prone coastal towns in northern New South Wales, Australia (Smith and Greenaway, 1988).
One of the most widespread natural hazards is flooding, and the potential for loss of property, risk to life and general social disruption is large.
The ANUFLOOD system requires locational and building type data on individual properties, stage-damage curves relating the average damage that would result from overfloor flooding to differing depths for each property type, and lastly, flood frequency in terms of flood height expressed as a probability.
