1 A partnership approach to climate change research Marion Mulholland Scottish Climate Change Impacts Partnership Coordinator Scotland & Northern Ireland Forum for Environmental Research SNIFFER s aim is to increase knowledge to help protect our environment and improve quality of life
2 SNIFFER s aim To increase knowledge to help protect our environment and improve quality of life Three functions We carry out 3 functions in order to deliver knowledge management: Research management Knowledge exchange Horizon scanning
3 Current topics Urban environment Climate change Environmental regulation Sustainable land use and water management We currently manage over 50 projects on behalf of five member organisations and stakeholders. 15 employees
4 SNIFFER climate change activities SNIFFER Manage climate change research on behalf of partners Act as secretariat for the Scottish Climate Change Impacts Partnership (SCCIP)
5 SNIFFER climate change activities Research Management Building a portfolio of projects since 2001 Working with partners across Scotland and Northern Ireland to deliver new knowledge and information on climate change Examples: The business risks of climate change to public sector organisations Survey of climate change activities for local authorities Handbook of Climate Trends across Scotland
6 A handbook of climate trends across Scotland Key Partners: Scottish Natural Heritage, SEPA, Scottish Government, Forestry Commission and UKCIP Development of an online tool for users of data to access trends Following our innovative approach, DEFRA are now about to launch UK trends handbook

9 Current SNIFFER climate change research Projects (2007/08) Reducing GHG Emissions across environmentally regulated Industry Climate change and organic soils Reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Northern Ireland Social impacts of climate change
10 Minimising Greenhouse Gas emissions across environmentally regulated industry To identify the key areas of environmental regulation where levels of GHG emissions are not considered and to investigate solutions that would result in minimising emissions SEPA, EHS, SG, DOENI Project now let to Enviros Consulting Scheduled for completion by April 2008
11 Climate change, land management and erosion in the organic and organo-mineral soils in Scotland and Northern Ireland, and organic carbon stocks To provide a critical analysis of the factors controlling the rate of structural and chemical degradation of organic and organo-mineral soils in Scotland and N. Ireland SNH, SEPA, SG, AFBI Project now let to the Macaulay Institute Scheduled for completion by July 2008.
12 Measurement of Northern Ireland Greenhouse Gas and Carbon Dioxide emissions To calculate Northern Ireland's GHG and CO2 emissions compared against the base year To enable NI to: review performance; separate out by sector emissions resulting from specific policies; inform the roll out of the NI Sustainable Development Strategy. DOENI, EHS, OFMDFM, EA, SG Project now let to AEA Technology Scheduled for completion by March 2008
13 Partnership working is key to sustainable climate adaptation Sectors must build capacity to adapt and must be aware of how their decisions affect other sectors
14 What is Adaptation? Adaptation refers to adjustment in natural or human systems in response to actual or expected changes in the climate or their effects, which moderates harm or exploits beneficial opportunities (IPCC definition)
15 SNIFFER climate change activities Partnership Working Co-ordinating the Scottish Climate Change Impacts Partnership Working with organisations in Scotland to prepare for climate change impacts Knowledge Exchange Providing information on data, trends, tools and support
16 What is SCCIP? SCCIP is an initiative that brings together stakeholders in Scotland to collectively address and prepare for the impacts of climate change Commissioned by the Scottish Government to provide a research and knowledge management service
17 The Vision for SCCIP SCCIP was established to increase the resilience of organisations and infrastructure in Scotland to meet the challenges and opportunities presented by the impacts of climate change
18 SCCIP Development Group Members include Scottish Government (SG) Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) UK Climate Impacts Partnership (UKCIP) Sustainable Scotland Network (SSN)
19 SCCIP outcomes to date Awareness raising workshops for Scottish Local Authorities on Climate Change Impacts Integrating Scotland s data requirements into upcoming Climate Change Scenarios for UK Highlighting adaptation activities within UK Adaptation Policy Framework Launch of new SCCIP website

22 SCCIP current work programme Focus on providing support and tools to sectors Research project for Local Authorities climate change mitigation and adaptation tools Local Climate Impacts Profiles for Local Authorities Training courses on UKCIP08 Climate Change scenarios Further engagement with sectors this year to identify their support and capacity building needs
23 UKCIP DEFRA funded body as an Oxford University programme To enable the UK to be adapting well to unavoidable climate change impacts UKCIP adaptation toolkit available at SCCIP work in liaison local delivery mechanism in Scotland
24 UKCIP08 Climate Change Scenarios Launch in October 2008 Probabilistic climate projections Marine projections Historical climate information Weather generator Roll out of Scottish pre launch workshops
25 Conclusions Partnership working can help to identify and set priorities for collective action Efficiency gains by sharing resources, information and knowledge Acts as a focal point to heighten awareness and importance of climate change
26 SCCIP next steps Current work programme funded until end March 2008 Proposals for SCCIP /11 What are your views? Priorities for SCCIP Opportunities for joint working Research gaps marion@sniffer.org.uk
In March 2014, the WGII report on Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability, which forms part of the IPCC 5th assessment, will be published.
