MEDAQCLIM PROJECT METHODOLOGY
The main objective of this project is to make a leap forward the quantitative assessment of long-term CC impacts on coastal water resources under CC uncertainty. Furthermore, the project aiming at probing the relationships among the future constraints imposed by CC with socioeconomic vulnerability and sustainable development. The proposed holistic assessment is achieved by using projections generated by CC and hydrological impact assessment models to subsequently identify vulnerability hotspots. The six targeted case studies considered in this project are selected from France, Italy, Greece, Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia. This project involves cooperation and partnership between EC (France, Italy, ... Read More

Project Title
Integrated Quantitative Assessment of Climate Change Impacts on Mediterranean Coastal Water Resources and Socio-Economic Vulnerability Mapping
MEDAQCLIM PROPOSAL ABSTRACT
The Mediterranean region is more sensitive to climate change extremes. These coastal sites share common water management problems due to their overexploitation, freshwater pollution, sea level rise, seawater intrusion and land losses. Increased complexity of policy making in these sites presents an ongoing challenge to managers. The objective of this project is to ... Read More
