Deliverables

2nd Annual workshop report (opens in new window)

This deliverable is the report from the second annual workshop. The report will include key results from workshop, assessment of milestone and needs for adjustment of project plan, action list towards next workshop (Milestone 4), key messages for dissemination and communication and so forth.Supported by Task 5.1.

Report on needs for adjustments of Key Project Results (opens in new window)

The Key Project Results (KPRs) are formulated to assist the management of the project. If they are not obtained, some part of the project is likely to fail. As the project proceeds, the KPRs may become irrelevant and in need of replacement. This evaluation will be done in Task 5.2. This delivery is a report of the first KPR assessment.

Project Manual (opens in new window)

A project manual that guides the project participants with respect to the standards that the project plans to adhere to, including reducing the project's carbon footprint, ensuring an open, caring and inclusive work environment and enhancing the non-scientific impacts of the project. This deliverable supports Task 5.1.

Scientific synthesis: fitness for purpose of current IAM approaches (opens in new window)

Scientific synthesis: fitness for purpose of current IAM approaches (including inter-model comparison from users’ perspectives):This deliverable is the publicly disseminated output of Task 4.1, reporting findings of questionnaire- and interview-based ‘market research’ on IAM users, with particular focus on target users in governance contexts beyond national climate policy-making (exploring what they use IAMs for and why, clarifying issues such as trust, confidence and uncertainties in relation to model scope / boundaries). To better understand the suitability, strengths and limitations of current IAM approaches in satisfying the information needs and requests of their users, this deliverable also consists of a structured appraisal of current approaches, including selected case studies relevant to the human world / biophysical Earth IAM developments in WP1 and WP2. This deliverable informs Task 4.4 and the workshops convened in WP5, and is relevant to D3.3’s reporting of simple IAMs and their uncertainties.

1st Annual workshop report (opens in new window)

This deliverable is the report from the first annual workshop. The report will include key results from workshop, assessment of milestone and needs for adjustment of project plan, action list towards next workshop (Milestone 3), key messages for dissemination and communication and so forth.Supported by Task 5.1.

Report on learning and training: internal summer school (opens in new window)

To promote mutual learning, especially for project participants who are new to system dynamics and/or IAMs, we will design an educational module for climate system science. In the first workshop we will pilot the co-development of a short, graduate-targeted educational module in interdisciplinary climate science, using a intensive summer-school format. It will use information about IAM contexts, contents and approaches gathered in D4.1, together with the initial core content gathered via Task 4.2 and Milestone 2 and the rough-draft version of FRIDA (D3.1) as the preliminary training materials. The internal summer school will also focus on developing and testing the pedagogy and assessment aspects for consistency and compliance with university and ECTS requirements.This deliverable supports Task 4.3.

The WorldTrans Dissemination, Exploitation and Communication Plan V1 (opens in new window)

In anticipation of the stakeholder assessment delivered from Task 4.1 we will develop the first version of the DE&C plan with particular focus on identifying key messages for communication, drafting an annual plan of activities/conferences/events of particular, strategic importance in order to reach out to target groups, identifying meaningful KPIs to monitor and evaluate the impact of communcation/dissemination actions. Supports task 5.4

Report on learning and training: educational materials (opens in new window)

This deliverable, which supports Task 4.3, consists of a collation of interdisciplinary educational materials (e.g. texts, videos, stylized ‘toy’ models and web interfaces) that support the understanding of system dynamics IAM-related models. Aimed at graduate-level education with a co-development and open learning ethos, the core set will be made available via ItsLearning (an online education management platform, used at Stockholm University) and other generic channels. An initial set of course materials drawn from partners’ existing teaching & learning activities will be gathered at the project inception. These core resources will be extended and curated iteratively through engagement with IAM modelers in Task 4.2 (on IAM methodology, structuring, idealization, critique, etc.), and with project-wide discussion during the Milestone 2 workshop. This deliverable is an essential input for Task 4.3.

WordTrans Data Management Plan V1 (opens in new window)

The data used and produced in WorldTrans consists of a wide variety of disciplines, formats, conventions and size requirements. For the first version of the DM plan (this deliverable) we will have mapped out and formalized user requirement to ensure that we build up a meta database during the project lifetime (and beyond) that satisfies all EU requirements and follows the FAIR principles. Supports Task 5.3.

WordTrans Data Management Plan V2 (opens in new window)

This report will include all identified needs for updating of the original DM-plan. Supported by Task 5.3.

Dataset and report on effects of uncertainty in specific existing simple IAMs. [FaIR, ESMICON, FeliX, Earth4All] (opens in new window)

Dataset and report on effects of uncertainty in specific existing simple IAMs. [FaIR, ESMICON, FeliX, Earth4All] Supported by T3.3):A dataset of fully descriptive output ranges which can be used to characterize and contextualize IAM outputs along with an associated report on the specifics of the method, and interpretation of the results. We’ll generate this data by performing a global sensitivity analysis (Saltelli et. al, 2008) on each of the models [FaIR, ESMICON, FeliX, Earth4All] across both parametric, and technological / social uncertainties. We’ll then combine the outputs of each of those model specific global sensitivity analyses to generate the complete range of model results. The main workstream for this effort is T3.3. Other tasks relied upon are T1.1 for updated and fully calibrated FaIR, and ESMICON models (D1.1).

Data set of ESM ensemble runs (opens in new window)

Earth system model ensemble production. A large ensemble of Earth System model runs using the MPI-ESM and NorESM models, in CO2 driven mode under the SSP1-1.9, SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-3.4 sceanrios, will be completed. The data will be uploaded to suitable servers (likely SIGMA2 and DKRZ) for permissive access to project members.This delivery is supported by Task 1.2.
