Climate Change 2007: Synthesis Report The AR4 Synthesis Report is organized differently from the Working Group reports, being comprised not of chapters, but of a Summary for Policymakers (SPM)(Introduction and five sections), the contained Synthesis Report (SYR)(Introduction, six Topics, and various sub-topics), and several annexes. The following models are provided for guidance. Note that the material in the SPM and SYR is derived from the other Working Group reports, and citing those reports directly is generally recommended.
