Rolling Review of Requirements (RRR) - Follow up workshops

Following the 1st Introductory workshop on RRR in May 2023, three follow up workshops are organized to discuss the progress and potential issues with RRR implementation in the specific Application Areas.

Invited participants are Earth System Application Category (ESAC) Coordinators and representatives of the ESAC owners, Application Area (AA) Points of Contact (PoC) and AA owner representatives, representatives of JET-EOSDE, as well as the Secretariat staff involved in the RRR process.

Participants are invited to report on the status of the following topics:

  1. AA (and ESAC) definitions/descriptions,
  2. Identified key variables,
  3. Defined/agreed requirements for the key variables,
  4. Draft gap analysis and Statement of Guidance,
  5. Any issues you might face in performing your tasks.
