| Synthesis report CS07 Tailoring climate scenarios In cooperation with several users KNMI started in 2005 to provide them with climate information tailored to their requirements. This report (in Dutch with a summary in Engelish) elaborates on the wishes for communication and the development of methods for tailoring climate data.

| Synthesis report IC11: Socio-economic Scenarios in Climate Assessments It is widely recognised that projections of social and economic futures are circumscribed by irreducible uncertainties and ignorance. A common analytical response is to develop scenarios that map a range of alternative possible outcomes. Klimaat voor Ruimte, project IC 11, Thursday 20 October 2011 |
| Jim Hall of Tyndall writes about the cost of flooding in Nature Climate Change The risk of flooding in the Netherlands could more than double by the 2040s, but the issue of who should pay for losses is an open question. Analysis (partly carried out by research in the Climate changes Spatial Planning Programme) reveals that private insurance could bear some - but not all - of the burden.

| Synthesis report COM29: Modelling and observing urban climate in the Netherlands According to the KNMI2006 climate scenario's the average temperature in the Netherlands will increase in the coming decades. Heat waves will occur more often and the intensity of summer showers will increase. Climate changes Spatial Planning, project COM29, Friday 1 July 2011 |
| CcSP IC10 results in report: Managing adaptation: linking theory and practice "A very helpful approach to understanding how climate change is framed, both generally, and in terms of decision-making and decision tools, is provided by de Boer et al. (2010). The critical point of clarity provided by this approach is that there is a relationship between the fundamental framing of climate change and the understanding of the decision problems it represents."
