Demonstration and validation of innovative methodology for regional climate change adaptation in the Mediterranean area (LIFE MEDACC)

Start date: Jul 1, 2013, End date: Jun 30, 2018,

Background Progress in the preparation of climate change adaptation strategies varies across the Mediterranean countries, where work is still needed to properly evaluate and validate the impact of strategy proposals. Methodological gaps remain in terms of preparing holistic strategies and much of the current work on climate change adaption is focused on s ...

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 ...

A structured network for integration of climate knowledge into policy and territorial planning (ORIENTGATE)

Start date: Jun 30, 2012, End date: Dec 30, 2014,

The OrientGate project will foster concerted and coordinated climate adaptation actions across the SEE region. The project will explore climate risks faced by coastal, rural and urban communities; contribute to a better understanding of the impact of climate variability and change on water regimes, forests and agro-ecosystems; and analyse specific adaptation needs in the hydroelectricity, agro-ali ...

Demonstration of energy efficiency and utilisation of renewable energy sources through public buildings (CEC5)

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

The central Europe is a highly urbanised area with a huge stock of existing public and private buildings with low energy efficiency. Great efforts are necessary to overcome the problem of energy consumption. To reach the goal of a nearly-zero energy demand buildings there is a great need for new techniques, methodologies and investments. The overall objective of the project CEC5 is the promotion o ...

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 ...

TOWARD CARBON NEUTRAL ALPS - MAKE BEST PRACTICE MINIMUM STANDARD (ALPSTAR)

Start date: Jun 30, 2011, End date: Mar 30, 2014,

The project addresses the need expressed by international community for transnational, well-directed and cross-cutting action to effectively manage climate change in the Alps. It aims to encourage preparation and implementation of cross-sectoral strategies and action plans and of proven good practice measures toward carbon neutrality on regional and local level. It contributes to the implementatio ...

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 ...

Adaptation to Climate Change in the Alpine Space (AdaptAlp)

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

Climate change is to a large extent constituted by increasing temperatures and changed precipitation patterns. Any change of these critical factors has implications on the frequency & extent of natural hazards. The uncertainties and the increase of natural hazards due to the impacts of CC requires concerted management in the Alpine Space. AdaptAlp will improve information on impacts of CC esp. on ...
