Building Bridges at the Science-Stakeholder Interface: Towards Knowledge Exchange in Earth System Science
No full textThis book covers the approaches, applied methods and central participatory processes at the science-stakeholder interfaces embedded in the development of the "Earth System Knowledge Platform (ESKP)". The latter is an initiative of the German Helmholtz Association, synthesizing the expertise of the eight Helmholtz research institutions focusing on Earth System Sciences.
The contributions showcase the approach of the Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) within the ESKP initiative. Central focus is placed on the question as to which knowledge transfer processes can be employed to foster meaningful approaches based on science-stakeholder dialogues, data products, and/or modelling. The authors suggest that the tools and approaches for enhancing the vital contributions of science to addressing societal challenges warrant further investigation and development
From Turbine to Wind Farms - Technical Requirements and Spin-Off Products
No full textThis book is a timely compilation of the different aspects of wind energy power systems. It combines several scientific disciplines to cover the multi-dimensional aspects of this yet young emerging research field. It brings together findings from natural and social science and especially from the extensive field of numerical modelling

Climate Change and Biodiversity—Implications for the Local Fisheries Sector
No full textThe North Sea has been and still is one of the most intensely used marine areas worldwide. Shipping (trade and private), the exploration/exploitation of energy resources (oil, gas and wind), fisheries and tourism compete for the scarce space (Holm et al. 2017). Especially, in German waters, resource-use conflicts rise between stakeholders
Tackling Marine Litter - LITTERBASE
No full textAnthropogenic litter contamination of the oceans is a global problem of growing concern and currently receives strongly increasing attention by policy makers, public authorities, media and the general public. Unlike many other pollutants, marine litter on beaches and its deleterious effects on marine mammals, birds and turtles have attracted much attention as they can be directly observed by stakeholders
The web portal 'meereisportal.de' in context of ESKP
No full textThe new knowledge and data portal ‘meereisportal.de’ is a contribution to the cross-linking of scientifically qualified information on climate change. It focuses deliberately on the theme ‘sea ice in both Polar Regions’. With the establishment of ‘meereisportal.de’, science adapts to changing societal demands and embarks on new ways of communication between science and society
