Research Projects

GLOBAQUA (Managing the effects of multiple stressors on aquatic ecosystems under water scarcity) is a EU-funded project aiming to identify the prevalence of, and interaction between, stressors under water scarcity in order to improve knowledge of relationships between multiple stressors and to …

HELIX (High-end climate impacts and extremes) is assisting decision-makers and the research community in making adaptation to our changing climate more understandable and manageable by providing a set of credible, coherent, global and regional views of different worlds at 2, 4 and 6°C, and now …

PRIMAVERA (Process-based climate simulation: advances in high resolution modelling and European climate risk assessment)  aims to develop a new generation of advanced and well-evaluated high-resolution global climate models, capable of simulating and predicting regional climate with …

IS-ENES2 (Infrastructure for the European Network of earth System Modelling - Phase 2) is the second phase project of the distributed e-infrastructure of models, model data and metadata of the European network of Earth System Modelling (ENES).

CLIMATEUROPE (European climate observations, modelling and services) will coordinate and support Europe’s knowledge base to enable better management of climate-related risks and opportunities, thereby creating greater social and economic value.

ESiWACE (Centre of Excellence in Simulation of Weather and Climate in Europe) will substantially improve efficiency and productivity of numerical weather and climate simulation on high-performance computing (HPC) platforms by supporting the end-to-end workflow of global Earth system modelling in …

CRESCENDO (Coordinated research in Earth Systems and climate: experiments, knowledge, dissemination and outreach) will improve the representation of key processes in European Earth System Models (ESMs), use the models to generate a new set of Earth system projections for the coming century and …

The Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) project Urban-SIS delivers high-resolution climate services over selected European cities.

Future hydrological extremes may be very different from today's reality and difficult to predict. The objective of IMPREX (Improving predictions and management of hydrological extremes) is to support the reduction of Europe’s vulnerability to hydrological extremes through improved understanding of …

Green Infrastructure (GI) has recently gained prominence as a planning tool at regional and local levels. GI provides a range of ecosystem services, and new initiatives can build on state-of-the-art research and on delivery mechanisms such as urban forestry (UF). However, greater attention is …
