[REPORT SUMMARY] Characterisation and quantification of the oceanic influence on Atlantic-European climate
The influence of the ocean on the climate of the North Atlantic European region has been extensively investigated through the use of coordinated experiments with four different atmospheric General Circulation Models. Multidecadal ensemble simulations were carried out in which ...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Seasonal and annual predicted wind speeds for offshore Europe at heights between 10 and 150 m
Mean wind conditions for the period 1985-97 were estimated using WAsP at eight hub heights at each POWER grid point over the sea. The hub height levels (10m, 30m, 50m, 70m, 90m, 110m, 130m and 150m above mean sea level respectively) were chosen to cover the range of expected h...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Ocean model validation with natural radiocarbon
All 13 OCMIP-2 groups made standard simulations for natural and anthropogenic C-14. Responsibilities for analyzing C-14 were split according to the nature of each component: GOSAC adopted the responsibility of analyzing simulated vs. observed natural C-14 (a tracerof deep-ocea...

[REPORT SUMMARY] The contribution of reactive halogen species to the oxidation capacity of the troposphere reactive halogen species
Tropospheric ozone is responsible for approximately 15% of the antropogenically caused greenhouse effect. It is also the precursor of the hydroxyl-radical, the most important atmospheric oxidant, and thus also responsible for the self-cleaning capacity of the atmosphere. Field...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Load spectra
A spectral model was derived for a dynamic analysis of vertical offshore structures. The model concerns ice actions in conditions where level ice is acting on the structure and fails by crushing. The model was derived directly from the full-scale data provided by the STRICE pr...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Advice for conducting scientific studies about the various glacial hazards and test of various investigation techniques in different contexts
Glacier outburst floods (jokulhlaups) are caused by the sudden drainage of glacier-dammed lakes. During such an event, the discharge can increase by more than one order of magnitude within a short time period (from hours to days). Jokulhlaups pose a significant hazard potentia...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Stem volume maps derived from remote sensing imagery and national forest inventory data
For mapping the local distribution of stem volume, Landsat ETM remote sensing imagery were combined with sample based field measurements from national forest inventories (NFI's). Alternatively to the NFI reference data, airborne LIDAR data acquired in parts of project areas ca...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Links with End-Users and Use of Indices
Summary:
Both in Italy and in France we have worked in close co-operation with potential end-users, viz. the Amministrazione Provenciale di Ferrara and the Conseil Général du Département de la Gironde, respectively. Therefore, we have developed methods to use as indices for de...
