Dissemination & outreach

S 7

Goal: dissemination of robust climate information meeting the expectations and needs of relevant stakeholders, and allowing their involvement in the decision making process

To achieve the goal of interactive dissemination, a 3-step approach will be taken:

(1) Identifying user-needs (end-user workshop in PM9)(2) Develop a climate service plan where users’ needs and capabilities of NACLIM are matched (Climate Service Plan PM12)(3) Dissemination of results by way of electronic media, workshops and conferences (throughout the project PM1-51)

User and stakeholder needs will be identified during end-user/stakeholders workshops Goal: create a bridge between scientific institutions and potential end-users

Target: •decision-makers, the private sector, the industrial sector (GIM, VITO, support UHAM)*•international climate science community (ICPO, support UHAM)*

Planned:•1st Workshop: Understanding users’ needs (before end of PM9= July 2013)•2nd Workshop: Providing interesting data to our users (before the end of PM34=August 2015)

Points to be defined*Support of ECOMS partners?Events organized locally?Language?Web seminars combined with workshops?

Coordination across

EUPORIAS, NACLIM and SPECS

S 13

NACLIM project has been clustered by the European Commission with two other complementary projects, EUPORIAS and SPECS, under the European initiative for climate service observation and modelling (ECOMS)

Goals:

1- Ensuring close coordination in Europe in the area of seasonal to decadal climate predictions towards climate services

2- Providing thought leadership to the European Commission on future priorities in the area of seasonal to decadal climate predictions towards climate services

European initiative for climate service observation and modelling (ECOMS)

S 14

Two targets for ECOMS

A) Joint dissemination and communication activities, for improving the outreach of results of the three projects

B) Establishment of a „think tank“

What ECOMS is supposed to achieve

S 15

Tools

A) Tools joint dissemination

S 16

Task?Make recommendations to the European Commission for priorities on European activities related to observation, modelling and climate services.

Who is the think tank: three coordinators of EUPORIAS, NACLIM and SPECS and of independent advisors

Three working groups (WG) will be established within this work package for coordinating the discussion:-WG 1 "Observations and monitoring", led by NACLIM-WG 2 "Modeling and infrastructure", led by SPECS-WG 3 "User/Stakeholder engagement", led by EUPORIAS

Data collected within the observational CT will be immediately made available to the modelling groups for implementation in the assimilation models and for evaluation in comparison with the coupled runs

data transfer between the different observational groups is mandatory

A central data server was set-up at GEOMAR within THOR: the same data server will be available for the NACLIM project as well

A web service communication module will be established for the project office for general communication and dissemination purposes
