The potential of shales as unconventional hydrocarbon resources has been accessed using 3D petroleum system modelling. The dataset shows the extent of the shales in the study area, that covers parts of the Danish, German and Dutch sector in the North Sea. The amounts of free, adsorbed and total GIIP and OIIP has been calculated for each shale. Further information is found in the report,GARAH WP2: 3D Pilot Study – Unconventionals, https://repository.europe-geology.eu/egdidocs/garah/garah_deliverable_report_d24_3d_petroleum_model_un.pdf

Structural geological model has been created for the purposes of the deep storage of the radioactive waste in the MOVE software and with the use of archival borehole data, archival and new geological maps and archival and new geophysical measurements.

Capsis is a simulation platform for forestry growth and dynamics models. It is a tool for forest scientists, forest managers and education and has been developed in the AMAP laboratory since 1999. Scientists who designed a forestry model may build a simulator in Capsis with the help of a developer according to the Capsis charter. This charter is accepted by all members and defines clear participation rules. It states that the software kernel is free software and that all the source codes for all the models are shared by all the Capsis modellers, an efficient way to promote mutualization between modellers.

Aims and Philosophy of the CoffeeFlux Collaborative Platform The aim of Coffee-Flux is to assess carbon, nutrients, water and sediment Ecosystem Services (ES) at the scale of a coffee agroforestry watershed and additional experiments. Observation, experimentation, modelling and remote-sensing are combined, collecting data and calibrating models locally, then upscaling to larger regions. The project has been running continuously since 2009, in order to encompass seasonal and inter-annual fluctuations of coffee productivity and ecosystem services. Coffee-flux is a platform where collaborative research on coffee agroforestry is promoted: data are being shared between collaborators and positive interactions are enhanced. The philosophy is to concentrate several investigations on one specific site and for several years, to share a useful common experimental database, to develop modelling and to publish results in highly-ranked scientific journals. Applied research is also highly encouraged (e.g. C-Neutral certification, NAMA, Agronomy, etc.). Coffee-Flux benefits from infrastructure, easy access from CATIE and very good security, ready to welcome complementary scientific investigations and collaborations. The project is wide open to complementary projects, scientists and of course to students. The core data base is for sharing.
