In 1986 the general assembly of International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU) decided to establish "International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme: A Study of Global Change (IGBP)" for period of 10 years from 1990. Following 4 study areas were identified to be significant by ICSU Special Committee; terrestrial biosphere-atmospheric interaction, marine biosphere atmosphere interaction, biospheric aspect of hydrological cycle, effect of climate change on terrestrial ecosystem. In addition working groups on the following 4 areas were established; global geoshpere-biosphere modeling, data management and information sysmtems, techniques for extracting environmental data of the past, geosphere biosphere observatories.
Later review on the study areas resulted in the establishment of following core projects. International Global Atmospheric Chemistry (IGAC), Global Change and Terrestrial Ecosystems (GCTE), Biospheric Aspects of the Hydrological Cycle (BAHC), Land-Ocean Interactions in the Coastal Zone (LOICZ), Joint Global Ocean Flux Study (JGOFS), Past Global Changes (PAGES). Two other core projects are being developed for possible acceptance. Land Use/Cover Changes (LUCC), Global Ocean Euphotic Zone Study (GOEZS). In addition 3 activites of interdisciplinary and common interests are operational. Global Analysis, Interpretation and Modeling (GAIME). IGBP Data and Information System (IGBP-DIS), Global Change System for Analysis, Research and Training (START).
Realizing the importance of the project, Japan first made preliminary study funded by Ministry of Education in 1988, which was later taken over by Science Council of Japan and national committee was organized in Science Council of Japan, counterpart of ICSU. After two years studious effort and coordination with other groups in Science Council of Japan, Recommendation for Implementation of IGBP was submitted to prime minister from President of Science Council of Japan which was forwarded to all ministers. The committees for all projects of ICSU have been organized in Science Council of Japan to promote implementation of IGBP.
