Nature for Climate Fund Monitoring and Evaluation Scientific Indicators
We invite single organisations or a consortium of organisations to provide proposals across several lots to develop indicators for the Programme evaluation. In broad terms, our requirement is focussed on organisations with scientific expertise and experience of indicator development. Several key outcomes were highlighted as areas for indicator development in May 2022, these include: Biodiversity Water quality Carbon sequestration Air quality

Lots
Lot 1 Biodiversity
Value not provided
the requirement is to measure biodiversity in existing and new woodland and provide a projection of how it may change over time based on the interventions of planting and protecting trees in and outside of woodland.
Delivery: United Kingdom
Lot 2 Water quality
Value not provided
improving water quality is a key objective and area of interest. Indicators measuring water quality are absent and it will be beneficial to understand the number of hectares planted by NCF in areas of England with lowest water quality and the change in water quality as a result.
Delivery: United Kingdom
Lot 3 Carbon sequestration
Value not provided
it will be important to measure carbon sequestration e.g. a model) versus more complex site-specific sequestration measurement (across different areas, soil types, rock types, tree age, and tree types).
Delivery: United Kingdom
Lot 4 Air quality
Value not provided
the requirement is to model the level of pollutant removal which NCF planting will deliver for six priority air pollutants: PM10, PM2.5, SO2, NH3, NO2, O3. The actual pollutant removal NCF trees programme will achieve is location and species dependent and cannot be currently accurately quantified. The existing indicator is crudely modelled.
Delivery: United Kingdom
