Climate Services. The term ‘climate services’ is relatively new and as such has no set definition. This report, as will the other deliverables of the EU-MACS project, will use the European Commission’s definition, which de- scribes climate services as: “the transformation of climate-related data—together with other relevant in- formation—into customised products such as projections, forecasts, information, trends, economic analysis, assessments (including technology assessment), counselling on best practices, development and evaluation of solutions and any other service in relation to climate that may be of use for the society at large. As such, these services include data, information and knowledge that support adaptation, mitigation and disaster risk management (DRM).” (DG for Research and Innovation 2015) FIGURE 2: SIMPLIFIED CLIMATE SERVICES DIAGRAM BASED ON EUROPEAN ROADMAP FOR CLIMATE SERVICES DEFINITION (XXXXXXX ET AL. 2017: 12) Figure 2 visualises this definition. “In it, climate data services, referring to climate data records, projections, forecasts, and climate models, are separated from adaptation, mitigation, and disaster risk management services, which include vulnerability and risk analyses, recommendations for climate change action, and more refined information. The dotted line around the two boxes in the middle is meant to symbolise the fluidity of the CS boundaries.” (Xxxxxxx et al. 2017: 12)

Climate Services as niche phenomenon in its innovation context Climate services are still a niche phenomenon (cf. Xxxxxxxx et al. 2017: 49). Although, there are examples of climate services providers that have been in the business for quite some time (DG Research and Innovation 2015), they have carved out a niche for themselves and are still exploiting a market niche. Still being in a very premature phase, the commercial climate services market underwent signifi- cant growth in recent years (Poessinouw 2016).
