IWRM-Net Scientific Coordination Project (IWRM-Net SCP) aims to provide the continuity of research projects’ follow up funded by IWRM-Net 1st and 2nd call both on administrative and technical sides. The ambition is wide as one key objective is to embed IWRM-Net funding initiatives research in the scope of the European Research Area. Three main challenges can be identified:

ICARUS

IWRM for climate change adaptation in rural social ecosystems Southern Europe (Italy, Portugal, Spain) ICARUS aims at increasing, in selected areas of Italy, Portugal and Spain, efficient water use in agriculture by analysing biophysical, socio-economic and institutional dimensions of sustainable water management and identifying innovative adaptation strategies, practices and tools for saving water in irrigated productions systems, which could be disseminated in other Mediterranean countries http://www.cmcc.it/research/research-projects/icarus-1/icarus

 

IMPACT

Developing an integrated model to predict abiotic habitat conditions and biota of rivers for application in climate change research and water management. (Germany, Portugal, France) The research project outlined herein aims at developing an integrated model which predicts the abiotic habitat conditions and biota of natural (reference), semi-natural or restored river reaches.
