(iii) Development demonstration and testing of a checklist for model quality assistance (together with dr. James Risbey and others). The work is published in the journal Environmental Modeling & Assessment. A web-based interactive version of the checklist has been implemented and is available on the www.nusap.net;

(iv) The Ph.D. work by Penny Kloprogge, aiming at the analysis and development of strategies to (better) manage value-ladenness in Integrated Assessment Modelling of climate change. Kloprogge made an analysis of the various ways in which stakeholder knowledge and perspectives have been included in integrated assessment modeling practice. She participated in the IIASA Young Scientist Summer Programme 2001, during which she studied the roles of value ladenness and (subjective) choice in the process of building assessment models, based on a large number of in-depth interviews with modelers at IIASA. Building further on these insights she developed in close collaboration with the RIVM an innovative method for the systematic review and critical appraisal of assumptions in model based foresight studies. The method has been demonstrated and tested on two environmental indicators from RIVM's 5th Environmental Outlook (EO5) and is now included in the tool catalogue of the RIVM/MNP Guidance on Uncertainty Assessment and Communication. One article is accpeted for publication in Climatic Change, three other journal articles are in preparation.

(v) The Ph.D. theses of Dr. Heleen Groenenberg (2002), Convergence and Development, a bottom-up analysis for the differentiation of future commitments under the Climate Convention. Three peer reviewed journal articles were published;

(vi) The joint writing and publishing with an international group of uncertainty experts of a state of the art conceptual paper "Defining Uncertainty: A conceptual Basis for Uncertainty Management in Model Based Decision Support" (Walker et al., 2003) in the journal Integrated Assessment. The paper presents a typology for uncertainty in the form of a matrix that distinguishes between location (context, model, inputs, parameters or model outcomes) and level (statistical uncertainty, scenario uncertainty, recognized ignorance) and nature (epistemic versus variability uncertainty).

(vii) The publication of the book Learning to Manage Global Environmental Risks, a functional analysis of social responses to climate change, ozone depletion, and acid rain, a two volume 600 page peer reviewed book. I co-authored 3 of the 22 chapters of the book. The book the book is co-edited by a then member of our group (Prof. Dr. Josee van Eijndhoven) and presents the findings of a major 4 year international research program.
