AFRICA-GHG: The role of African tropical forests on the Greenhouse Gases balance of the atmosphere (AFRICA-GHG)

Start date: Apr 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2014,

The role of the African continent in the global carbon cycle, and therefore in climate change, is increasingly recognised. Despite the increasingly acknowledged importance of Africa in the global carbon cycle and its high vulnerability to climate change there is still a lack of studies on the carbon cycle in representative African ecosystems (in particular tropical forests), and on the effects of ...

Operational Global Carbon Observing System (GEOCARBON)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2014,

Today, countries use a wide variety of methods to monitor the carbon cycle and it is difficult to compare datafromcountry to country and to get a clear global picture. The current global observational and modelling capabilitiesallow us to produce estimates of carbon budget at different level (from local to global) but many uncertainties stillremain. Decision makers need now more than ever systemat ...

Forest fires under climate, social and economic changes in Europe, the Mediterranean and other fire-affected areas of the world (FUME)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

Fire regimes result from interactions between climate, land-use and land-cover (LULC), and socioeconomic factors, among other. These changed during the last decades, particularly around the Mediterranean. Our understanding of how they affected fire regime in the past is limited. During this century temperatures, drought and heat waves will very likely increase, and rainfall decrease. These and fur ...

Water Availability and Security in Southern EuRope and the Mediterranean (WASSERMed)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2013,

The WASSERMed project will analyse, in a multi-disciplinary way, ongoing and future climate induced changes in hydrological budgets and extremes in southern Europe, North Africa and the Middle East under the frame of threats to national and human security. A climatic and hydrological component directly addresses the reduction of uncertainty and quantification of risk. This component will provide a ...

InfraStructure for the European Network for Earth System Modelling (IS-ENES)

Start date: Mar 1, 2009, End date: Feb 28, 2013,

"IS-ENES will develop a Virtual Earth System Modelling Resource Centre (V.E.R.C.), integrating the European Earth system models (ESMs) and their hardware, software, and data environments. The overarching goal of this e-infrastructure is to further integrate the European climate modelling community, to help the definition of a common future strategy, to ease the development of full ESMs, to foster ...

A Europe-South America Network for Climate Change Assessment and Impact Studies in La Plata Basin (CLARIS LPB)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2012,

The CLARIS LPB Project aims at predicting the regional climate change impacts on La Plata Basin (LPB) in South America, and at designing adaptation strategies for land-use, agriculture, rural development, hydropower production, river transportation, water resources and ecological systems in wetlands. In order to reach such a goal, the project has been built on the following four major thrusts. F ...
