OPERATIONALISATION OF NATURAL CAPITAL AND ECOSYSTEM SERVICES: FROM CONCEPTS TO REAL-WORLD APPLICATIONS (OPENNESS)

Date du début: 1 déc. 2012, Date de fin: 31 mai 2017,

Despite improved understanding of the links between ecosystem health, provision of ecosystem services and human well-being, further conceptual and empirical work is needed to make the ideas of ecosystem services (ESS) and natural capital (NC) operational. OpenNESS will therefore develop innovative and practical ways of applying them in land, water and urban management: it will identify how, where ...

TWO!EARS

Date du début: 1 déc. 2013, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2016,

TWO!EARS replaces current thinking about auditory modelling by a systemic approach in which human listeners are regarded as multi-modal agents that develop their concept of the world by exploratory interaction. The goal of the project is to develop an intelligent, active computational model of auditory perception and experience in a multi-modal context. Our novel approach is based on a structural ...

Gas Absorption Heat Pump solution for existing residential buildings (HEAT4U)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2011, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2014,

Residential buildings represent 60% of the building stock and the area where most of the potential to drastically reduce energy use and CO2 emissions lies. New directives push for deep retrofitting efforts, in order to achieve energy efficiency and RES adoption targets for 2020 and beyond. These require acting both on envelope and on energy use systems, mainly heating and DHW equipment that repres ...

Developing a Knowledge Network for EUropean expertise on biodiversity and ecosystem services to inform policy making economic sectors (KNEU)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2010, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2014,

"Knowledge about biodiversity and ecosystem services is well advanced in the European scientific community, as demonstrated by many excellent projects and their scientific impact. However, on the global as well as the European scale, there is a failure to communicate the knowledge gained into the policy-making process and society as a whole. Such communication efforts, must ensure that all relevan ...
