Summary: | Poster on WP5 case studies of the Blue-Action project: in Blue-Action a set of five case studies bring scientists together with stakeholders and often small and medium enteprises to co-develop products that “translate” the model outputs and improved modelling skill developed in WPs 1-4 into societal- and sector-relevant products. The value of these products to both stakeholders and end-users will be quantified, preferably in financial terms where possible. The case studies address the following sectors: Winter tourism centers in Northern Finland Temperature-related human mortality in European regions Extreme weather risks to maritime activities Climate services for marine fisheries Yamal 2040: Scenarios for the Russian Arctic Each case study follows a broadly similar pattern, involving: identification of end-user/stakeholder requirements development of products evaluation and valuation of products and the increased skill delivered by Blue Action and dissemination of results More can be read here: http://blue-action.eu/index.php?id=4662 This poster has been updated for the workshop "Climate services at work, Projects exchange and networking lab", held in Brussels, 29 -30 November 2017 - CDMA building. Organiser: European Commission More about this workshop: Through climate services, the best (climate) science serves the need of a wide range of users - from public authorities to business to citizens - to factor in the climate signal in their decisions, in order to minimize risks and seize possible opportunities. That is why the use of climate services can play a crucial role for the transition to a low carbon economy and to a more informed, resilient society, and support the implementation of the Paris Agreement. This makes user-driven climate services and the emergence of a related market a key research and innovation priority identified by the EU and supported through a number of funding programmes and initiatives. This vision, which has been pinpointed in the European research and innovation roadmap for climate ... |
