JPI Climate: Point of Departure and Motivation
Climate Research in Europe
• Multitude of players: 562 partners involved in FP7 projects
in 2007-2010
• Considerable national research contributions:
•
EC-FP7: 141,7 Mio EUR (2007-2010)
•
JPI-NRP: more than 200 Mio EUR per year
• Predominantly natural-science based
• Weak link between knowledge
production and application (science
and decision-makers)

Start of
Launch
CSA funding
• Future plans:
• Implementation of SRA/IP
• 9 funded projects will start
• ERANET Climate Services
• Access to Knowledge elaborated
• Call TBD Climate Predictability
• various workshops/symposium
• ERANET with Urban Europe?
• Socio-economic research call?
• ISIMIP support?
Achievements so far:
• SRA and Governance adopted
• GB established
• Implementation plan drafted
• Short-term activities (FTAs)
• Commission support CSA
• Secretariat Brx established
• National dialogues climate services
• Various WG (scoping) workshops
• Joint calls Arctic/Societal

Fast Track and Scoping Activities
Module 1:
•
•
•
•
Decadal prediction including relevant observation, understanding, processes.
Towards a European strategy for climate modelling: coordination and next generation of climate
models.
Changing cryosphere in the climate system, from observation to climate modelling.
Greenhouse gas verification.
Module 2:
•
•
Mapping users’ requirements: What do we know and what not?
Mapping climate services providers in Europe.
Module 3:
•
Scoping, reviewing and facilitating social science contributions to climate change research.
Module 4:
•
•
•
•
Development of science-practice laboratories (with JPI Urban Europe?).
Effectiveness of knowledge transfer at the occasion of the publication of the IPCC AR5.
Economic research programming
Impact modelling intercomparison programme ISI-MIP).
Increasing attention to crosscutting issues
The assessment of probabilities, risks and consequences of plausible
climate futures requires joint learning, synthesis and knowledge
exchange across the boundaries between natural and social sciences and
between modules.
– Integrated socio-economic policy and response analysis.
– Integration of observations, models and tools.
– Framing of policy and research questions
Cross-cutting integration involving all the modules recognises the need
for the integration of climate and other relevant knowledge to better
inform users’ needs.
– Integrated climate services.
– Integrated hot-spots or sector studies.
– Science-practice laboratories.
Implementation Plan
Instruments for differential implementation
• Coordinated Calls and alignment of Existing Activities
• Joint Calls (first set in 2014, approx. 10MEuro)
– Societal Transformation in the Face of Climate Change.
– Russian Arctic & Boreal Systems.
• ERANET – integrating approach across the JPI Climate clusters
– ERANET Climate Services under preparation
– ERANET climate smart and resilience proposed (with JPI Urban Europe)
• Joint Research Infrastructure (ESFRI)
• Joint Knowledge Sharing Activities
• Sustainability, Adaptability, Stakeholder Orientation, Transparency, Cost
Efficiency
