| Short description: |
The Project ClimateWater is aimed as the first step on the analysis and synthesis of data and information on the likely (known, assumed, expected, modelled, forecasted, predicted, estimated etc.) water related impacts of the changes of the climate with special regard to their risk and to the urgency of getting prepared to combat these changes and their impacts.
|
| Long description: |
The overall objective of the ClimateWater project is to study European and international adaptation measures and strategies related to climate change impacts and how these are taken into account in water policies. The project will formulate a coherent framework on adaptation strategies of climate change impacts on water resources, water cycling and water uses of the society and nature with special regard to those that water policy has to take into account when considering climate change impacts.
The project will bring together scientific and policy experiences on the existing and/or missing links between climate change and water management and will help to
* identify research needs on climate change impacts on water cycle and resources,
* develop and apply methodologies for adaptation measures to climate change,
* develop scenarios of water demand and to potential implementation on water policies.
