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 ...

NEWFOR - NEW technologies for a better mountain FORest timber mobilization (NEWFOR)

Start date: Aug 31, 2011, End date: Aug 30, 2014,

The role played by mountain forests is extremely varied. Their contributions to the stability and overall development of life and economic factors in mountainous regions are highly significant. Due mainly to topographic conditions, managing mountain forests is significantly more cost intensive than in plain ones. A good knowledge of forest biomass location, characteristics, mobilization conditions ...

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 ...

Climate Change Adaptation by Spatial Planning in the Alpine Space (CLISP)

Start date: Aug 31, 2008, End date: Aug 30, 2011,

Climate change impacts, esp. growing risks from natural hazards, increasingly threaten settlements, infrastructure, lives and future development in the Alpine Space. CLISP aims at preventing increasing climate change-related spatial conflicts, vulnerability, damages and costs by providing "climate proof" spatial planning solutions as a substantial basis for future sustainable territorial developme ...

maNET - Permafrost long-term monitoring network (PermaNET)

Start date: Jun 30, 2008, End date: Jul 13, 2011,

Permafrost is highly sensitive to climatic changes. Permafrost degradation and related natural hazards affect traffic routes, tourism areas, settlements and infrastructures. The main problem is a lacking strategy for the consideration of these newly observed specific impacts of climate change in risk prevention and territorial development. With the joint development of a common strategy for dealin ...
