Additional information

The following adaptations have been made to the UN Geoscheme to ensure that all European Economic Area (EEA) member and cooperating countries (EEA-38) are covered:
• Omitting all countries that are not part of EEA-38
• Including Cyprus and Türkiye in ‘Southern Europe’ (rather than ‘Western Asia’)
• Changing the name of ‘Eastern Europe’ to ‘Central-Eastern Europe’ (to avoid confusion with the IPCC AR6 WGII region ‘Eastern Europe’, with which it does not overlap)
