  1. e-LUP Workshop (1) e-LUP Writing the e-textbook Mikael Pihlström Warsaw, 30-31 October 2006

  2. The project has four distinct phases • case studies on ecosystem biogeochemistry, landscape biodiversity, ecotechnosystems, pollution, multifunctional agriculture, sustainable building, months 5 to 20. • dynamic models and their incorporation into an interactive visualization software, 1st batch ready month 18, 2nd batch ready month 26. • combining simulations, text, videos and graphics into a e-textbook/tool, months (6) 11-40. • testing of the e-tool/e-textbook by policy makers (including EC staff) and stakeholders, months (24) 28-39.

  3. WP5 e-toole-textbook Dual structure: the main pages for the focused policy maker are more interactive, user-defined and tool-like. The e-textbook levels offer background, explanatory texts and references for general users, incl. students

  4. WP4 Visualizing software A screenshot of a page in PuMe I, the pine simulator. On the left: the user defines the premises for the simulation. On the right, other multimedia components are available.

  7. WP5 Writing a chapter The designation “writer” must be properly understood; for any “writer” the task is much broader thanputting together a traditional text, which some partners might have as a blueprint from before. The framework of SIA necessitates a lot of reading and conceptualisation to succeed in structuring a text which: • integrates environmental, economic and social aspects • reflects knowledge on state-of-art modeling within the field • complies with issue definition tree in chapter two (previous slide) • reflects knowledge of relevant EU policies The working methods within a specific chapter are to be agreed between the writers in question under the leadership of the chapter editor. Typically there will be interaction between EU specialists on environmental impacts, on socioeconomic tools, case studies responsibles, Russian specialists, the general editor, WP4 = visualization and Petteri Vanninen, as well as commissioned texts from outside There might be a need for effective personal contacts between chapter writers in the latter half of the project; for this travel funds have to be reserved in the partner budgets.

  8. the e-tool • MAIN PAGES = e-tool (5-10 pages) • Issue – concise formulation • EU-policies • - UN/ECE protocols on long-range transport air pollution • - Clean air directives – National emission ceilings – CAFE • - Directives on hazardous substances, on heavy metals etc • Russian policies - very short list • Impacts and SIA assessment tools (recommended ones) • - primary: acidification of environment • - secondary: economical (losses, abatement costs) and social (life quality) • Case study • - MeHg cycles, POP contamination, deposition models • Visualization (if any) • - acidification model SAFE/MAGIC, run with Southern Sweden values • - or ECOSENSE from EXTERNE: also health effects

  9. the e-textbook IN-DEPTH = e-textbook (20-30 pages) Issue – full story , put in context of Sustainable Development EU-policies, in detail - UN/ECE protocols on long-range transport air pollution - Clean air directives – National emission ceilings – CAFE - Directives on hazardous substances, on heavy metals etc Russian policies Impacts and SIA assessment tools (recommended ones) - primary: acidification of environment - secondary economical (losses, abatement costs) and social (life quality, health effects) Case study - MeHg cycles, POP contamination, deposition models Visualization (if any) - illustration: acidification model SAFE/MAGIC ?, run with Southern Sweden values - or ECOSENSE from EXTERNE: also health effects

  10. WP5 Writing a chapter (2) 2. Contact Coordinator for discussion on need for other writers and coordination with Russian partners 4. Refining and modification for e-tool 1.
