National Academic Research and Collaborations Information System (NARCIS) is the main Dutch national portal for those looking for information about researchers and their work. NARCIS aggregates data from around 30 institutional repositories. Besides researchers, NARCIS is also used by students, journalists and people working in educational and government institutions as well as the business sector.
NARCIS provides access to scientific information, including (open access) publications from the repositories of all the Dutch universities, KNAW, NWO and a number of research institutes, datasets from some data archives as well as descriptions of research projects, researchers and research institutes.
This means that NARCIS cannot be used as an entry point to access complete overviews of publications of researchers (yet). However, there are more institutions that make all their scientific publications accessible via NARCIS. By doing so, it will become possible to create much more complete publication lists of researchers.
In 2004, the development of NARCIS started as a cooperation project of KNAW Research Information, NWO, VSNU and METIS, as part of the development of services within the DARE programme of SURFfoundation. This project resulted in the NARCIS portal, in which the DAREnet service was incorporated in January 2007. NARCIS has been part of DANS since 2011.
DANS - Data Archiving and Networked Services - is the Netherlands Institute for permanent access to digital research resources. DANS encourages researchers to make their digital research data and related outputs Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable.

Displaying 886 - 890 of 1863Routeplanner naar een klimaatbestendig Nederland: Adaptiestrategiën: 3: A qualitative assessment of climate adaptation options and some estimates of adaptation costs
The Routeplanner project aims to provide a ‘systematic assessment’ of potential adaptation options to respond to climate change in the Netherlands in connection to spatial planning. The study is the result of a policy oriented project that took place between May and September 2006. The aim of the current study is to provide a ‘qualitative assessment’ of the direct and indirect effects of adaptation options and to provide an assessment of some of the costs and benefits of adaptation options.

Analyzing the Economic Costs of Land Degradation and the Benefits of Sustainable Land Management. Environmental Economics Toolkit
This Tool Kit has been prepared to support the design and implementation of sustainable land management (SLM) programs.The specific purpose of the Tool Kit is: to inform the user of the approaches that can be followed to analyze and value the economic costs of land degradation and the benefits of sustainable land management. ‘Land’ is interpreted broadly in the Tool Kit, also including wetlands and coastal zones.
Beleid voor particulier natuurbeheer bij provincies : achtergronddocument bij 'Evaluatie omslag natuurbeleid'
Dit rapport bevat een evaluatie van de rol van provincies bij de functiewijziging van landbouwgronden naar gronden met een functie natuur, als onderdeel van de omslag in het Natuurbeleid. Hierbij worden minder gronden voor natuur verworven voor beheer door terreinbeherende organisaties, en meer gronden door particulieren in beheer genomen. Via documentanalyse en interviews met provincies is geanalyseerd hoe ze deze omslag vormgeven en zijn conclusies getrokken over de kansrijkheid van de omslag.
