Capitalising Climate Change Knowledge for Adaptation in the Alpine Space (C3-Alps)
Start date: Dec 31, 2011, End date: Dec 30, 2014,
C3-Alps will synthesize, transfer and implement in policy and practice results of previous Alpine Space projects on climate change adaptation. The capitalisation approach aims at a) generating new and directly usable forms of state-of-the-art synthesis adaptation knowledge in the Alps, harmonised across sectors and useful to adaptation decision-makers, b) its effective and tailor-made communicatio ...

imProved Accessibility: Reliability and security of Alpine transport infrastructure related to mountainous hazards in a changing climate (PARAmount)
Start date: Aug 31, 2009, End date: Aug 30, 2012,
Transport security and accessibility are essential for a balanced and sustainable development of ASP. Due to current climatic trends, the vulnerability of transport infrastructure to natural hazards has increased. But the specific threats to transport infrastructure have not yet been tackled in a systematic joint effort. Therefore the goal of PARAmount is to improve risk management strategies for ...

MANFRED - Management strategies to adapt Alpine Space forests to climate change risks (MANFRED)
Start date: Jul 31, 2009, End date: Jul 30, 2012,
With the expected Climate Change (CC), the ecological conditions for forests in the Alpine Space will be fundamentally changing – with unknown effects on the forests essential protective, ecological, economical and social functions. Under different climate and land-use change scenarios only an adaptive management can provide the conservation of the natural heritage and the multiple functions. MANF ...

Monitoring Network in the Alpine Region for Persistent and Other Organic Pollutants (MONARPOP)
Start date: Jun 30, 2003, End date: Dec 30, 2007,
The natural heritage, particular forests as prevailing alpine ecosystem type, play a crucial role for a sustainable development in the Alps. Important functions are the protection from avalanches and mudflows, the economic dimension of forestry, the drinking water supply, the re-creative features for tourism and the biodiversity aspects. Pollutant input endanger this natural heritage and its funct ...

Integrated Land Use Planning and River Basin Management (ILUP)
Start date: Dec 31, 2001, End date: Dec 30, 2006,
The risk potential in river basins has increased strongly due to the enormous use pressure. In view of the demographic concentration in river basins and potential climate changes, safety in valleys is only possible if protective water management and other disciplines cooperate. In selected river basins, exemplary new methods are being tested, strategies developed and pilot projects implemented. Du ...
