Abstract
The focus of Knowledge for Climate (KfC) research in Hotspot Schiphol Mainport is to optimize the contribution of meteorological services to a sustainable operation and reliable operation of Schiphol airport. Three research projects have been carried out in the first tranche of the Knowledge for Climate programme on climate change and local critical weather conditions at Mainport Schiphol. Two projects (IMPACT and WindVisions) will be continued in the second tranche of the programme, in the Knowledge for Climate consortium High-Quality Climate Projections (Theme 6). This report presents a summary of the main results of the first tranche projects, and an outlook on the expected end results of the second tranche research at the end of the programme in 2014.
