KNOWING Playful Trainings

The Deliverable contains user guides and descriptions of the beta version of web-based trainings developed in Task T4.3 for specific stakeholder groups, e.g. to support local planners in consulting local businesses (e.g. planners consulting farmers) or to communicate policy decisions and measures to stakeholders and citizens.

KNOWING App

Beta version of multilingual KNOWING App developed in Task T4.3 for citizens and stakeholders. The app (downloadable Climate Interaction Knowledge Base (KER1) and via the KNOWING Hubs, including user guide) helps to decipher the complex interrelationships of the causes and effects of different climate impacts and countermeasures in an interactive and engaging way.

KNOWING Decision Support Service (DSS)

In Task T4.3 implemented beta version of web-service for Decision Support to identify CIC-specific pathways. The KNOWING Desicion Support Service (DSS) provides comprehensable Generalised CIC Pathways which can be to some extent adjusted to regional specifics. This Deliverables provides a description of DSS technical functionalities, output design and specific application contexts.

Global Pathway Assessment

Generalised CIC Pathways developed by applying CIC Pathways to Follower Regions and adopted to globally comparable region types and contexts in Task T3.5. These Generalised Pathways can be applied globally to give guidance for developing Transformation Plans. This can also be used to estimate required compliant regions worldwide to reach climate targets, which will be included in the information provided by the KNOWING Decision Support Service (DSS, KER4).

CIC2 Climate Mitigation Pathways

"Resulting CIC2-specific pathways developed in Task T3.3 in the Demonstrators """"Flooding & Infrastructure"". The Pathway specifies sets of mitigation/adaptation measures, timelines for implementation including risks of plan deviations, and background information on sector interrelations as part of the KNOWING Decision Support Service (DSS, KER 4)."

Expandable Impact Interaction Model Framework

The Deliverable consists of the further developed, trained and tested Model Framework (Task T2.3) comprising of central quantitative SD Model with interfaces to different sector models, including backcasting functionalities and transferability checks. The Framework is open source and will be made accessible via the Clmate Interaction Knowledge Base (D1.4). The defined interfaces can be coupled with any sector model from the sectors involved in the project, also additional interfaces can be defined after the project lifetime to allow for modelling additional CICs. The model improvements will be documented in the Climate Interaction Knowledge Base via regular updates.

CIC1 Climate Mitigation Pathways

"Resulting CIC1-specific pathways developed in Task T3.2 in the Demonstrator ""Heat waves & Health"". The Pathway specifies sets of mitigation/adaptation measures, timelines for implementation including risks of plan deviations, and background information on sector interrelations as part of the KNOWING Decision Support Service (DSS, KER 4)."

CIC3 Climate Mitigation Pathways

"Resulting CIC3-specific pathways developed in Task T3.4 in the Demonstrator """"Soil Fertility & Agriculture"". The Pathway specifies sets of mitigation/adaptation measures, timelines for implementation including risks of plan deviations, and background information on sector interrelations as part of the KNOWING Decision Support Service (DSS, KER 4)."

Websites, patent fillings, videos etc. (3)

Basic Climate Interaction Knowledge Base

Basic version of website with data base developed in Task T1.4 comprising open access data, impact findings, descriptions of strategies or interventions for researchers, decision makers, stakeholders and citizens collected during WP1, to be tested by user groups and expanded/improved during WP2, WP3 and WP4.

Final Climate Interaction Knowledge Base

Extended version of website developed in Task T1.4 offering access to all structured knowledge collected during the project in the technical WPs (e.g. in form of a Wiki), and an open access data base comprising data collected during the project, open source models and results of the project. the post-project maintenace and further development as well as potential handover to future hosts will be specified during the last year of the project in the KNOWING Exploitation Plan (D5.5).

Dissemination Archive

This Deliverable links to Task T5.3 and provides an overview about dissemination achievements (events, Newsletters, scientific papers, public reports etc.) accessible over the project website. The overview will be continuously updated, at least every Reporting Period.

Documents, reports (8)

CIC-related Measures Inventory

Report comprising the categorised demonstrator specific adaptation/mitigation measures and interactions based on the the screening results in Task T1.2 and the feedback provided by the EEAB.

EEAB & SRG Recommendations

Coordinated under Task T6.1, this report summarises the recommendations and the feedback provided by the advisory bodies EEAB and SRG during the past Reporting Period and how these have been considered. The report will be updated at the end of each Reporting Period.

KNOWING Exploitation Plan

This report summarises Task T5.5 activities and lists planned exploitation measures and guidelines for implementation. The focus lies especially on the main developments of models and tools achieving TRL leaps during the project, in particular the Qualitative Interactive Model (D2.1), the Impact Interaction Model Framework (KER2; D2.4), theImpact Coping Behaviour Model (component of D1.3), the KNOWING Decision Support Service (DSS) (D4.7) and the KNOWING App (D4.4). It is updated at the end of each Reporting Period.

Impact Interaction Model Framework

This Deliverable consists of a description of the now calibrated SD Model with interfaces to different sector models (D2.2) and how to access it and couple sector models. The framework is open-source and will be further developed based on the modelling results and CIC insights from WP3. The SD Model and interfaces codes will be made accessible via the Climate Interaction Knowledge Base (D1.4).

CIC Modelling Plan

Detailed model plan prepared in Task T3.1 for each Demonstrator Region describing the key sectors affected and those involved in the envisioned mitigation and adaptation activities to provide an overview of the key processes needed to perform multisectoral modelling of pathways for CICs.

Climate Impact Coping Typology

Report on development and resulting behaviour typology of stakeholder and citizen reactions (coping strategies) to CICs performed in Task T1.3. The report will describe the methodology for clustering Coping Behaviour Tapes based on a survey involving a minimum of 1,600 respondents from the Demonstrator and follower countries. The report also includes descriptions of the resulting Coping Types and the Behaviour Model. The Coping Behaviour Model source code is open access and will be included in the Climate Interaction Knowledge Base (KER1, D1.4)).

KNOWING Innovation Catalogue

This Deliverable is based on the activities in Task T6.5 and provides an overview of innovative leaps achieved in the project as well as insights and learnings from other projects, evolving needs and emerging technologies which have influenced the course of the project implementation. The catalogue will summarise the achievements of each project year and presented on the project web site.

Backcasting/Transferability Concept

The Deliverable comprises the documentation of the backcasting methodology including specific conditions and transferability concepts developed in Task T2.4. The methodology produces additional functionalities which will be added to the Impact Interaction Model Framework (KER2, D2.2) which will then be applied in WP3. The description will also be included in the Climate Interaction Knowledge Base (KER1, D1.4).

Other (1)

Qualitative Interactive Model

The Deliverable consist of a graphical representation of the Qualitative interactive System Dynamics Model developed in Task T2.1 in form of a Causal Loop Diagram. The Diagram will be integrated in the Climate Interaction Knowledge Base (KER1, D1.4) and can be accessed online.

Data sets, microdata, etc (1)

Knowledge Calendar and Archive

This Deliverable related to Task T5.4 comprises a database and structured collection of dissemination measures including post-assessment of measures which will be updated every 12 months.

Data Management Plan (1)

Data Management Plan

The Data Management Plan is developed from the draft concept in Task T6.6 and defines on data management and accessibility during the project lifetime as well as post project use of datasets. It is updated at the end of each Reporting Period.
