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.

Displaying 261 - 265 of 1863Detecting systemic change in a land use system by Bayesian data assimilation
A spatially explicit land use change model is typically based on the assumption that the relationship between land use change and its explanatory processes is stationary. This means that model structure and parameterization are usually kept constant over the model runtime, ignoring potential systemic changes in this relationship resulting from societal changes.
Flowers for food? : Scoping study on Dutch flower farms, land governance and local food security in Eastern Africa
The Netherlands is an important actor in the floriculture sector worldwide. Many Dutch flower companies have in recent years established businesses in the Global South as a result of favourable climatic conditions, available land and water resources, and the presence of cheap labour. With the aim to stimulate investments in developing countries (e.g., in the context of the Private Sector Investment programme) some companies were further incentivized by the Dutch government to start up their business through development-related subsidies or favourable loans.
Nadere analyse vrijkomende agrarische bebouwing Gelderland
Nadere uitwerking van aard en omvang vrijkomende agrarische bebouwing 2012-2030 in de provincie Gelderland. De onderzoeksresultaten zijn op verschillende manier ruimtelijk gedifferentieerd en is de aard (bouwjaar en bedrijfstype) nader geanalyseerd. Tevens is een inschatting van de te verwachten leegstand, de te verwachten oppervlakte schuren met asbest en de te verwachten sloopopgave in beeld gebracht.
Natuurlijk Kapitaal Nederland pilots Waterveiligheid : ecosysteemdiensten in de praktijk van het Deltaprogramma
Doel van dit project is om aan de hand van twee pilots te bepalen wat de mogelijke economische en ecologische meerwaarde is van natuurinclusieve oplossingen voor waterveiligheidsopgaven uit het Deltaprogramma. Daarnaast is het doel om te toetsen of en hoe die meerwaarde een rol speelt in de praktijk van het keuzeproces. Voor de pilot in het Rivierengebied is gekozen voor nadere uitwerking van ecosysteemdiensten en natuurwaarden bij enkele alternatieven voor een hoogwatergeul langs de Waal bij Varik – Heesselt.
