Reactivation of former watercourses to support urban stormwater management
Simperler L., Glanzer M., Ertl T., (Corresponding) Kretschmer F.
Topic:
Climate change mitigation and adaptation
In recent decades many urban water courses have been heavily modified by land gaining measures aiming at canalising, straightening and draining existing water systems. Additionally, urbanisation causes a higher degree of sealing which results in higher surface runoff during rainfall. Today, in many...Read more
Climate change impact on river assimilative capacity: a case study application of water related climatic indicators
ROMAS E., (Corresponding) ZIOGAS A., PECHLIVANIDIS I., TZIMAS A.
Topic:
Water and climate services - challenges and user-tailored developments
In this investigation, we use climatic, water-related indicators to evaluate the impact of climate change on the assimilative capacity of the Asopos River, Central Greece. Indicators were developed and organised under the SWICCA climate service (http://swicca.eu), which aims to develop and showcase...Read more
Drinking water from surface and ground water: production costs and influence of the climate change
(Corresponding) Verlicchi P., Grillini V., Maffini F., Benini A., Casoni R., Mari M.
Topic:
Water treatment
Drinking water production may be affected by climate changes (i.e. intense rainfall events and high temperature periods) which impact on the availability and quality of the water source, above all surface water bodies. Efforts are being made to adopt the best strategies in the drinking water...Read more
