  1. The Role of Environmental Monitoring in the Green Economy Strategy K Nathan Hill March 2010

  2. Objectives for Green Economy Strategy Secondment in Environmental Monitoring • Develop a high level roadmap for NERC Knowledge Exchange activities in the Environmental Monitoring domain • Develop a set of strategic goals linked to NERC strategy and a tactical plan for achieving these goals. • Including organisational aspects within NERC, relationships with industry and stakeholders, and resources required

  3. The Green Economy • The term “Green Economy” has been used to describe the emerging economy which • Makes optimal use of environmental resources and processes • Understands environmental constraints and the process of environmental change • Develops and implements technologies and solutions that ensure environmental sustainability

  4. Environmental Markets:FTSE Environmental Opportunities Index This index, with 472 constituent companies (104 UK based), is one way of measuring that part of the economy that considers itself to be dependent on the environment as providing the enabling opportunity for its business

  5. Measurement Capability

  6. Industry acts as provider and customer

  7. Deployment in the Environment

  8. Definition of Environmental Monitoring This is what we mean by Environmental Monitoring: - Capability: tools, technologies, techniques - And its deployment in Environmental Measurement

  9. Dissemination of Capability is the Real Added Value of NERC Science

  10. Environmental Monitoring Underpins Green Economy Sectors

  11. A Diffusion Model for Environmental Monitoring Knowledge Exchange in the Green Economy Strategy Technology / Capability Management Strategy

  12. Strategy Implications 2 Capability Diffusion Strategy

  13. A Diffusion Model for Environmental Monitoring Knowledge Exchange in the Green Economy Strategy Capability Diffusion Strategy Technology / Capability Management Strategy

  14. A New Definition? • Our broad definition of the scope of Environmental Monitoring thus covers the first two blocks: • Capability • Technologies, techniques, tools and facilities to model and measure the environment. These comprise platforms, instruments (and their component technologies), modelling & simulation, data analysis, data storage and management. • Deployment • Measuring and modelling the environment through application of the Capabilities described above. This activity of environmental modelling and measurement is the key to generating information that leads to environmental understanding.

  15. Capability Management Strategy • Maps 1:1 to Technology Theme and elements of National Capability • Environmental Monitoring Industrial Policy • Industry is both supplier and potential beneficiary • This is encapsulated in the phrase “NERC: The Expert Customer for Environmental Monitoring”

  16. Underpinning Environmental Monitoring

  17. Focus areas • Remote Sensing • Environmental Monitoring Services • Sensor Networks • Sensor / Instrument Deployment
