#impactassessment

A brilliant new paper in #ResearchEvaluation 📄 compares how the UK, Norway, and Poland implemented research impact assessment - with very different results:

🇬🇧 UK built infrastructure, #REF became a strategic tool.
🇳🇴 Norway took a soft, formative approach.
🇵🇱 Poland copy-pasted, spent big - got confusion, “point-chasing” and no culture shift.

🇺🇦 A lesson Ukraine risks ignoring again.

Continued thread

Furthermore, #SLiCE has been developed to support a dynamic #ImpactAssessment, which enablesa modelling and analysis of the temporal dynamics of #Carbon uptake and emissions for #BioBased building materials.

#SLiCE is successfully applied in projects for the European Commission on modelling the whole life cycle #WLC GHG emissions of buildings across #Europe, for upscaling and scenario analyses at #BuildingStock level for all of Europe and for individual Members States - More soon!

“HIGHLIGHTS
• The rise in temperature and increase in precipitation is projected in future in Kaligandaki River basin.
• The water availability in the basin is not likely to decrease during this century.
• The change in water balance in the upper sub-basins of Kaligandaki River is higher.
• The output from this research could be beneficial for water resources management..."

The Habitat Foundation supports nature researchers and conservationists in Eastern Europe. The support can be simple but nevertheless important. One of the organisations supported is NGO Wildlife Montenegro.

Wildlife Montenegro is in desperate need of a batlogger, a device that turns the high-pitched shouts of bats into sounds that humans can hear. Help Wildlife Montenegro to purchase one. Donate:
