Focal point
Location
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.

Het streekplan Gelderland 2005 biedt de mogelijkheid om tot 2015 het areaal glastuinbouw in de provincie fors uit te breiden. Gezien de landelijke ontwikkelingen in de glastuinbouw en de streekplannen van andere provincies is het echter de vraag of deze uitbreiding noodzakelijk is. Een heroverweging van de plannen is een mogelijke optie.
Routeplanner naar een klimaatbestendig Nederland 1: Nulmeting
In dit rapport is voor het eerst getracht op een systematische wijze de vraag te beantwoorden hoe bestendig Nederland is tegen klimaatverandering – en tegen de daarmee gepaard gaande zeespiegelstijging. Daarbij zijn de recent gepubliceerde klimaatscenario’s van het KNMI voor 2050 gebruikt, alsmede vier sociaal-economische scenario’s met een zichttijd tot 2040. Wat het klimaat betreft ziet het ernaar uit dat dit in Nederland gaat lijken op het klimaat zoals dat momenteel heerst in Zuidwest-Frankrijk.
Managing organic resources for soil amendment
Soil fertility management is a key issue for sustaining agricultural production in the tropics. Organic resources are important for short-term nutrient availability, as well as for longer-term maintenance of soil organic matter. For smallholder farmers, organic materials are an important source of nutrients, and necessary to manage soil fertility. However, the amount of organic material available on-farm is often limited in supply, and differs widely in quality. This is why the little that is available needs to be used as efficiently as possible.
