Dit artikel bepleit te leren door te kijken wat anderen al hebben bedacht en te leren van hun ervaring op het gebied van klimaatbeheersing. Een manier die daarbij kan helpen is 'mappen' (in kaart brengen) van voorbeeldprojecten. Dat is precies wat via Climatescan.nl mogelijk is.

There is a wide diversity of projects undertaken to address urban resillience and climate proofing in the world. International knowledge exchange tools are evaluated with result: stakeholders demand tools that are interactive, open source and provide more detailed information (location, free photo and …

Permeable pavements are a type of SUDS that are becoming more common to allow infiltration, to minimize runoff volumes and to treat urban water stormwater by soil filtration. However, urban stormwater runoff contains significant concentrations of suspended sediments that can cause clogging and reduce …

Due to climate change the frequency of extreme precipitation is set to increase. To reduce the risk of damage, Dutch municipalities will need to retrofit the urban areas in a climate resilient (CR) way. To justify this investment, they need evidence for the possibilities of CR urban street designs and …

This CIENS-report sums up the main findings from the project “Cultural heritage and water management in urban planning” (Urban WATCH), financed by the Research Council of Norway through the MILJØ2015 programme, and cofunded by the Directorate for Cultural Heritage in Norway (Riksantikvaren) and the Geological …

A baseline study was performed to characterize the stormwater quality from the upstream roofs and road areas. Results showed variations in stormwater quality. This may inhibit single-step treatment performance. Therefore, a ‘treatment train’ of several SUDS measures was developed in order to achieve …

Kleinschalig drijvend bouwen heeft weinig tot geen negatieve invloed op de waterkwaliteit. Sterker nog: vissen, waterplanten en mosselen gedijen goed onder de drijvende constructies. Dat is gebleken uit literatuurstudie en verkennend onderzoek met een speciaal ontwikkelde onderwaterdrone.

Plants are sessile organisms that deal with their -sometimes adverse- environment in well-regulated ways. Chromatin remodeling involving SWI/SNF2-type ATPases is thought to be an important epigenetic mechanism for the regulation of gene expression in different developmental programs and for integrating …

Common cloning is often associated with instability of certain classes of DNA. Here we report on IS1 transposition as possible source of such instability. During the cloning of Arabidopsis thaliana gene into commercially available vector maintained in widely used Escherichia coli host the insertion of …
