HYDRO-NET: Hydro-Telemetric Networks of Surface Waters: instrumentation, smart technologies, installation, and operation.
The objective of HYDRO-NET is the upgrade, development, and pilot operation of a prototype hydro-telemetric network for monitoring surface waters, with the prospect that the design principles and optimal operation of this network will be applied to hydrometric networks throughout the Greek Territory. This network will supply observations to the Open Hydro-Systems Information Network https://openhi.net/ […]
Drafting of the Attica Regional Plan for Climate Change Adaptation (PeSPKA).
The PeSPKA will assess the immediate and long-term impacts of climate change on various environmental, economic, and social activity sectors, and define sectoral and spatial priorities within the Attica Region. It will also assess cumulative impacts across sectors and inter-regionally where deemed necessary. Scientific Coordinator: Ch. Giannakopoulos, Type: GREEK (ATTICA REGION)
RI – URBANS – Research Infrastructures Services Reinforcing Air Quality Monitoring Capacities in European Urban & Industrial Areas
Description: RI-URBANS aims to demonstrate how Service Tools (STs) from atmospheric Research Infrastructures (RIs) can be adapted and enhanced to better address the challenges and societal needs concerning air quality (AQ) in European cities and industrial hotspots. RI-URBANS responds to urgent needs to substantially reduce air pollution across EU by providing enhanced AQ observations in […]
CHOICE (Mainstreaming Integrated Assessment Models by embedding behavioural change and actor heterogeneity and increasing their outreach to citizens, communities and industrial actors)
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has issued a stark warning: the planet must achieve net-zero emissions by 2050 to avoid dire climate consequences. In addition to supply-side mitigation actions, this ambitious goal requires “substantial demand-side mitigation” and significant changes in behavior and lifestyles, particularly in major industries such as food and agriculture, which […]
LIFE-MareNatura (Conservation of priority species of marine megafauna in Greece and Italy)
The LIFE MareNatura project, with a total budget of almost 11 million euros, is co-funded by the European Union (75%). It will cover an extensive marine area from the Aegean to the Ionian Sea and the southern Adriatic, thus becoming the largest European marine biodiversity protection project ever implemented in Greece. A significant part of […]
ReMED – Towards climate resilient urban cities
ReMED aims to develop innovative methods and tools to enhance the capacity of public authorities to develop, implement, and monitor adaptation measures at building and city scale. The project will provide capacity-building measures to public authorities using a user-friendly online platform to facilitate its use. The platform will be tested in various municipalities such as […]
