Assessment of Climatic change and impacts on the Quantity and quality of Water (ACQWA)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

As the evidence for human induced climate change becomes clearer, so too does the realization that its effects will have impacts on natural environment and socio-economic systems. Some regions are more vulnerable than others, both to physical changes and to the consequences for ways of life. The proposal will assess the impacts of a changing climate on the quantity and quality of water in mountain ...

European Network on Noise And Health (ENNAH)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Jan 31, 2012,

"This proposal puts forward plans to establish a research network of experts on noise and health in Europe. This network will establish future research directions and policy needs in Europe. The network will review the existing literature on environmental noise exposure and health focussing on the consolidation of existing state of the art knowledge and the identification of gaps in the evidence a ...

Monitoring of Road Traffic related Effects in the Alpine Space and Common Measures (MONITRAF)

Start date: Dec 31, 2004, End date: Jun 29, 2008,

The project intends to strengthen the interregional exchange of traffic related effects and monitoring results in the Alps. In the participating regions, monitoring networks are already established and results are available. The idea is to use these results and establish the interregional exchange about the interpretation and consequences: Identify the road traffic related effects on the Alpine sp ...

Monitoring and Minimisation of Traffic-Induced Noise and Air Pollution Along Major Alpine Transport Routes (ALPNAP)

Start date: Dec 31, 2004, End date: Dec 30, 2007,

A network of regional experts aims at the integrated use of advanced science-based methods to monitor, assess, and predict air pollution and noise and their impact on the environment, quality of life and health along major transport routes. These methods are adapted to the Alpine topography and its specific meteorological phenomena which often amplify the levels of concentration and noise. The pur ...

Seismic hazard and alpine valley response analysis (SISMOVALP)

Start date: Jun 30, 2003, End date: Mar 30, 2007,

Due to tourism and industrial development, urbanised areas located on deep-filled sediment alpine valley have undergone massive development. In the last decade, many seismological studies have shown that vibrations due to earthquakes are strongly amplified by alpine-specific soil conditions. Therefore, the fast building expansion in the alpine environment may have not been regulated by adequate le ...

METEORISK - Mitigation of natural risks through improved forecasting of extreme meteorological events (METEORISK)

Start date: Jun 30, 2001, End date: Jun 29, 2006,

Extreme meteorological events originate in one part of the Alps and proceed over or along the alpine crest. The effects of these events are inundations, landslides, avalanches, Föhn storms etc., which do not occur outside of the Alps in this form. The forecasting of these events is limited by the lack of structured communication between the weather services in these areas and the lack of online av ...
