The Green Climate Fund (GCF) is a new multilateral fund designed to address the critical mitigation and adaptation needs of developing nations with the aim to foster resilience and low-emission development.
The UN Green Climate Fund directed at low carbon, resilient development got a boost at COP21, with advanced economies formally agreeing to jointly mobilize USD 100 billion per year by 2020 to address the pressing mitigation and adaptation needs of developing countries.

By an adaptation of the developed techniques, a solution is also provided for the problem of generalized asymptotic regulation with suboptimal transient response.
Adaptation of previously developed crop models has resulted in multiple crop modules in APSIM, which have low scientific transparency and code efficiency.
The synthesis of TO-Aeg-PNA monomer (8) was achieved in seven steps (Scheme 2) by using an adaptation of previously developed methods.
