Objective 4. To improve Communication, Education and Public Awareness (CEPA) about migratory waterbird species, their flyways, their role in alleviating poverty, threats to them and the need for measures to conserve them and their habitats (AP Headings: E, F) Within the past three years, the AEWA has developed a communication strategy that provides the framework for communication-related work of the Agreement. It is desired that targeted audiences, as specified in the AEWA Communication Strategy, are better informed about migratory waterbird species, their populations and flyways; are aware of threats to them and understand and support the need for their conservation. The three specific targets that have been formulated reflect the communication strategy’s intentions and aim to secure its implementation and updating as follows:

During the 2018 MOSPA exercise, demonstrate the capability to utilize the Circumpolar Oil Spill Response Viability Analysis (COSRVA) to facilitate decision‐ making on OSR planning and tactics during a response in the Arctic marine environment. • The purpose of the COSRVA is to better understand the potential for different oil spill response systems to operate in the Arctic marine environment. Discuss the benefits and challenges (with ways to mitigate those challenges) of the Circumpolar Oil Spill Response Viability Analysis (COSRVA).
Objective 4. At least ninety-four percent (94%) of the persons who are newly identified 10 HIV positive are offered Partner Services.
Objective 4. To test and validate new and existing methods for on-line Hg measurement under field conditions using the developed gas standards and/or generators. This will include measurement of Hg in stack emissions and in ambient air. Emission measurements: Coal fired power plants using different flue gas abatement systems (electrostatic precipitators, fabric filters and desulphurisation units) and cement kilns are the major sources of Hg emissions to the atmosphere. Therefore, a coal fired power plant (in Marl, Germany) and a cement clinker production facility (in Anhovo, Slovenia) were used for the field tests. The project set-up the logistics for testing and validating new and existing methods for on-line Hg measurement under field conditions at both these sites. The calibration of the Hg continuous emission monitoring system (CEMS) in the coal fired power plant was performed using an evaporative reference gas generator developed by Optoseven and VTT. The response time, signal to noise ratio, and linearity of the CEMS Hg reading were determined in field conditions by flushing the whole system with a reference gas. In general, very good linearity was obtained between reference gas concentration and the CEMS reading. The slope of the calibration curve was 1.035. The calibration curve has a slight positive offset, which is due to a lag in the response time as zero concentration level was not reached between consecutive calibration points. Samples from the stack gas were collected from the coal fired power plant (in Marl, Germany) and a cement clinker production facility (in Anhovo, Slovenia) using different types of commercial Ohio Lumex sorbent traps. The measurements were carried out using sorbent traps for the determination of Hgtot in accordance with the new CEN TS 17286 method and the existing US EPA 30B method and with traps for speciation. Sorbent traps were used to collect flue gas for the determination of (i) Hgtot, (ii) Hg speciation, and (iii) stable isotope ratio analysis. The results of the analyses of using the commercial Ohio Lumex sorbent traps, validated and verified in Objective 3 were in good agreement with the results measured by the CEMs at both sampling sites. The steps identified in the Good Practice Guide (Objective 3) were also used during the field testing. In order to evaluate the Hg removal efficiency of the flue-gas desulphurisation (FGD) system at the coal fired power plant, sampling was performed simultaneously at two sampling points be...
Objective 4. Catalogue of Project results One specific objective of the Mixed-Criticality Forum is to make available project results and also facilitate sharing, discussion and further development on the community platform, focusing on: Meta-models for application and platform modelling Virtualization components (e.g., extended network interfaces, resource managers) Simulation environment Tool support Documentation and training material The mixed-criticality forum aims to support liaisons with other projects targeting mixed-criticality systems and the exploration of synergies with related European, national and international initiatives to influence the research and innovation in the mixed-criticality application domains and portray the results on the community website. Particularly, the ongoing and closed mixed-criticality projects in FP7 and ARTEMIS will be contacted through designated persons that are participating in these projects. The Community Building Platform shall support partners in DREAMS and other MCS projects to present the results of their activities in order to facilitate visibility and re-use. Project results are not limited to technological results (e.g. models, software, hardware, simulations, tools), but can also apply to supporting materials such as documentation and training, courses, video materials, etc. The Community Building Platform shall support the availability of such project results. The catalogue of project results will also facilitate impact and exploitation by enabling end users to identify suitable technology providers (e.g., tools, IP, hardware components, software components) enabling technology providers and suppliers to communicate technology/product portfolios and identify potential customers supporting the identification of joint exploitation opportunities combining different technological building blocks
Objective 4 accelerate transition to a sustainable economy notably through stimulating markets for sustainable fuels and products
Objective 4. To improve the accuracy and metrological traceability in the calculation of dose from time-sequences of QI measurements by optimisation of the time points (i.e. obtaining cumulated activity from a TAC), choice of measurement modality (imaging or non-imaging), refinement of absorbed dose standards, and validation of alternative absorbed dose calculation methods in phantoms using physical measurement techniques such as MR sensitive gel-based and film-based dosimetry and MC simulations. The aim of this objective was to improve the accuracy and metrological traceability in the calculation of dose from time-sequences of QI measurements through the optimisation of the time points and choice of measurement modality (imaging or non-imaging). In addition, to support this by refining absorbed dose standards, and validation of alternative absorbed dose calculation methods in phantoms (e.g. using physical measurement techniques such as MR sensitive gel-based and film-based dosimetry and MC simulations). Modelling methods for the determination of optimal scan times One of the major sources of uncertainty identified for the determination of absorbed dose for MRT is the fitting of the TAC data. Therefore, a theoretical study was undertaken to determine if the choice of optimal scan times within a dosimetry study could influence the uncertainty of the TAC. A pilot method was developed in the preceding project HLT11 MetroMRT for obtaining optimal scan times. However, although this method was tested on suites of data sets provided by clinical partners, it was not validated. In this project modifications were made to this pilot method and the way the method was validated. The pilot method was extended to consider that activity values derived from a succession of quantitative images have associated correlation. As part of this a review of current recommendation from The European Association of Nuclear Medicine (EANM), ICRU and Committee on Medical Internal Radiation Dose (MIRD) and several clinical groups for the choice of time points within dosimetry was performed. The conclusions made were that these techniques relied on population biokinetic modelling and not individual patients. It was also noted that compliance with some suggestions would be hard due to the number of scans required, particularly if outside normal departmental hours. Taking this into consideration he proposed technique for the for the determination of optimal scan times relies on the definition of an acti...
