D1.9: Final report on exploitation, incl. plan for post nextGEMS era

About this document Summary of the implementation on exploitation activities and exploitation plan beyond project lifetime. Work package in charge WP1 Executive summary This report outlines how the results of the Horizon 2020 project nextGEMS are being exploited beyond the project’s runtime. It focuses on three main outputs: storm-resolving Earth system model development, high-resolution simulation datasets, and scientific publications. These results are already reused across scientific, technical, and institutional settings, through successor projects, open data access, and educational activities. The report identifies key target groups—ranging from model developers and applied users to technologists, policy actors, and the public—and describes how they benefit from and contribute to the uptake of project results. It also details concrete exploitation measures, including integration into institutional workflows, training formats, and strategic communication efforts that ensure long-term impact.
