The results of HCILS can be used to assess a lake actual state, and they show what can be expected in the future. The water balance and residence time in alpine lakes are very sensitive to changes in air temperature and precipitation. A temperature increase of 1.4 °C until 2050 produces reductions in lake water renewal of 12 to 23 % of the annual mean (summer change is much higher with partly > 81 %. The superposition with only small decreases in precipitation (5 %) produces important reductions of lake water renewal up to more than 40 % annual mean, summer change is even higher with partly > 117 %). Land use changes (p.e. reforestation) can increase significantly these water losses (future research demand). Consequently the fill up time and mean residence time of lake water are increasing.

-==Outcomes and Impacts== +[[:wiki:results|Results]] of a project can be differentiated in [[:wiki:results#outputs|outputs]], [[:wiki:results#outcomes_and_impacts|outcomes and impacts]] of an intervention. Source:[[http://www.oecd.org/dataoecd/40/7/43184177.pdf|OECD Glossary of Key Terms in Evaluation and Results Based Management]].
-Outcomes are the likely or achieved short-term and medium-term effects of an intervention's outputs, e.g. the outcome of improved, knowledged-based decision-making processes as an effect of a knowledge database (= output) established by a project. Outcomes will in most cases not materialise before project closure. +
-\\ Impacts are positive and negative, primary and secondary long-term effects produced by a development intervention, directly or indirectly, intended or unintended.[[http://www.oecd.org/dataoecd/40/7/43184177.pdf|OECD Glossary of Key Terms in Evaluation and Results Based Management]] +
-\\ As outcomes and impacts are difficult to differentiate, this section contains both of these types of project results.  +
-\\ The identification of outcomes and impacts requires a deeper insight into the respective project e.g. through project participants or direct interviews with project representatives. Outcomes and impacts are usually not solely influenced by projects, but are a complex combination of project results on the one hand and framework conditions on the other. Unlike project outputs, outcomes and results cannot be described in a standardised way. Therefore, they are listed as free text:\\  +
-__!!!THE FOLLOWING OUTCOMES ARE ONLY DUMMIES, THEY NEED TO BE REVIEWED AFTER THE IN-DEPTH-ANALYSIS!!!:__  +
-  - After SILMAS's project closure, the project partners have formed a board that organises a bi-annual conference on lake management in the Alps [[http://www.lakesmanagementconference.com|link to conference]]. This conference contributes to creating awareness for lake-management issues particularly in the respective venues and brings together decision-makers from different regions in the Alps +
-  - In the drafting process of the macro-regional strategy for the Alps, the SILMAS demand for an "inter-regional analysis, addressing the functional interactions between the regions with regard to water use, water supply, evacuation of water from urban areas and damage prevention as well as the resources of water from the Alps" has been integrated.+

 +== Outcomes and Impacts ==
 +
 +__Not recognised synergies__
 +
 +  * It will be necessary to maintain databases and websites on the internet even after the project period.
 +  * Many of the practitioner-oriented outputs seem to be useful but are not accessible anymore.
 +
 +__Achievements that could be further implemented__
 +
 +  * Not only providing better access to the research results, but proactively informing potential stakeholders.
 +
 +__Remaining gaps__
 +
 +  * There are no other major gaps (apart from the bad data accessibility and missing practitioner orientation).
 +
 +__Emerging contradictions__
 +
 +  * If supporting SSD is a major goal, then the result's usefulness should be better underlined. At the moment there is a strong focus on purely scientific outputs.
