Stratospheric and upper tropospheric processes for better climate predictions (StratoClim)

Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2018,

StratoClim will produce more reliable projections of climate change and stratospheric ozone by a better understanding and improved representation of key processes in the Upper Troposphere and Stratosphere (UTS). This will be achieved by an integrated approach bridging observations from dedicated field activities, process modelling on all scales, and global modelling with a suite of chemistry clima ...

Policy-oriented marine Environmental Research in the Southern EUropean Seas (PERSEUS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

The overall scientific objectives of PERSEUS are to identify the interacting patterns of natural and human-derived pressures on the Mediterranean and Black Seas, assess their impact on marine ecosystems and, using the objectives and principles of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive as a vehicle, to design an effective and innovative research governance framework based on sound scientific knowl ...

"Innovative Multi-purpose off-shore platforms: planning, Design and operation" (MERMAID)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

"European oceans will be subject to massive development of marine infrastructure in the near future. The most obvious is the energy facilities e.g. offshore wind farms, exploitation of wave energy, expansion of electricity connections, and also further development and implementation of marine aquaculture. This will also lead to an increased need for marine infrastructure to support installation an ...

Climate Local Information in the Mediterranean region: Responding to User Needs (CLIM-RUN)

Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Feb 28, 2014,

"CLIM-RUN aims at developing a protocol for applying new methodologies and improved modeling and downscaling tools for the provision of adequate climate information at regional to local scale that is relevant to and usable by different sectors of society (policymakers, industry, cities, etc.). Differently from current approaches, CLIM-RUN will develop a bottom-up protocol directly involving stakeh ...

DATA REPOSITORIES AND COMPUTATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL AND CLIMATE STUDIES IN THE EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN (DARECLIMED)

Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jul 31, 2013,

"The Mediterranean and Middle East, with a combined total population of more than 400 million people, are characterized by strong environmental gradients, climate extremes and diverse economic, social and cultural identities. It is expected that throughout the 21st century the region will experience substantial adverse climate changes and face major challenges in energy demand and supply, as well ...

"Climate Change, Hydro-conflicts and Human Security" (CLICO)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

"Media headlines are dominated by the prospect of regional water wars. Clearly, climate change poses several threats to human security; in particular, hydro-climatic hazards such as droughts and floods have a considerable capacity to exacerbate social tensions, intra- and inter-state conflict. Still, cooperation often trumps conflict. There are surprisingly few peer-reviewed studies rigorously add ...

Researchers in Cyprus Care About the Environment (RECARE)

Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2008,

"The Research Promotion Foundation has been organising the Researchers’ Night events in Cyprus since 2006. The main objective of the proposed RE-CARE project taking place on the 26 September 2008 is to attract a large number of people from various age groups, giving them the opportunity to meet with the researchers in person, to understand what researchers do for their living and how their ""job"" ...
