GEAS is a mechanism for identifying and communicating early warning information on emerging issues in areas ranging from climate change and ecosystem management to environmental governance and resource efficiency. The Global Environmental Alert Service continuously scans the scientific literature, analyses results of earth observations and other data sources to produce alerts on policy relevant environmental hotspots, environmental science, and near real-time environmental hazards. This report is a compilation of the 2013 GEAS bulletins.
