Demonstrating Managed Aquifer Recharge as a Solution to Water Scarcity and Drought (MARSOL)
Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2016,
Southern Europe and the Mediterranean region are facing the challenge of managing its water resources under conditions of increasing scarcity and concerns about water quality. Already, the availability of fresh water in sufficient quality and quantity is one of the major factors limiting socio economic development. Innovative water management strategies such as the storage of reclaimed water or ex ...

"Health and Environmental Risks: Organisation, Integration and Cross-fertilisation of Scientific Knowledge" (HEROIC)
Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2014,
"Today, human risk assessment and environmental risk assessment are typically separated. Existing risk assessment (RA) experience and regulations are challenged by future RA needs.- There is a lack of mutual understanding between subject matter experts of individual disciplines.- Data from toxicological and ecotoxicological studies is not readily accessible by risk assessors across disciplines.- T ...

Linking Impact Assessment Instruments to Sustainability Expertise (LIAISE)
Start date: Nov 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2014,
Existing research points out that the full potential of Impact Assessment (IA) for delivering sustainable development is not being realised. Many tools to support IA are not yet being fully employed by policy makers. This is symptomatic of a large and deep gap between the two broad communities of IA researchers and IA practitioners. Practitioners tend to look for tools that are simple and transpar ...

European Biodiversity Observation Network; a project to design and test a biodiversity observation system integrated in time and space (EBONE)
Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2012,
The key challenge addressed in the present proposal is to develop a biodiversity observation system that is transmissible, cost effective and provides added value to the currently independent data sources of in situ data and EO. There are three requirements: the production of protocols to enable extant data to be placed on a common framework for analysis; the provision of a sound scientific conce ...

Investigation of the molecular pathogenesis and pathophysiology of Disorders of Sex Development (DSD) (EuroDSD)
Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2011,
Disorders of Sex Development (DSD) constitute a group of rare to very rare mostly heritable disorders affecting the genito-urinary tract and in most instances also the endocrine-reproductive system. We hypothesize that stringent and stepwise analysis of cases with DSD will result in a systematic and reliable discovery of DSD-relevant biochemical, genetic and functional profiles, allowing for the d ...
