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

The role of sustainability rating systems in delivering infrastructure and building engineering’s contribution to climate change mitigation and adaptation

(Corresponding) Venables R.

Topic:

Climate change mitigation and adaptation

Although overall drivers for climate change mitigation and adaptation are clear, it is often difficult for professionals working on infrastructure and buildings to assess what relevant action they should be taking in their designs and construction. In parallel, scientists working on construction or...Read more

THE INFLUENCE OF DANUBE RIVER HYDROGRAPHIC AND THERMIC FACTORS ON FISH STOCKS DYNAMICS IN RAZIM-SINOE LAGOON SYSTEM

Chioveanu C., (Corresponding) Simionov I., Patriche N., Tenciu M., Dragomir E., Oprea L.

Topic:

Climate change mitigation and adaptation

The Romanian fishing areas extends over 7000 km2 and 50% of the numbers of authorised fishers conduct their activities in the Danube areas. Inland fisheries are highly important for income, food security and nutrition. Inland peri-rural fisheries face degradation due to climate change. According to...Read more

SOIL EROSION AS A CONSEQUENCE OF CLIMATE CHANGE

(Corresponding) Hupková D.

Topic:

Climate change mitigation and adaptation

The climate change and relevant negative impacts are currently widely discussed topic. The agricultural soil erosion represent the risks generated also by agricultural activities reflected in soil quality. Rapid climate change can cause the instability of most agricultural and forest ecosystems...Read more

Livestock Greenhouse Gases emissions and its contribution to Climate Change. The case study of a Cyprus cow farm

LOIZIA P., (Corresponding) VOUKKALI I., ZORPAS A.

Topic:

Climate change mitigation and adaptation

Human population is expected to increase from 7.8 to 9.4 billion by 2050. At the same time the demand for agricultural products will increase by about 50-70%. As a result, there is a growing awareness that rapid growth in global production and consumption of livestock products is contributing to...Read more

Integrating Seaport Infrastructure Monitoring Approaches to Improve Smartness and Climate Adaptive Capacity

(Corresponding) Tsaimou C., Chalastani V., Sartampakos P., Tsoukala V.

Topic:

Climate change mitigation and adaptation

Seaport infrastructure monitoring promotes the development of an effective management system that ensures functionality, structural capacity and safety. Monitoring approaches are considered to be a useful tool in an attempt to deal with growing global trends, such as seaport “smartness”, or with...Read more

Stakeholder Mapping & Analysis for Climate Change Adaptation in Greece

(Corresponding) Nydrioti I., Katsiardi P., Chioti D., Sebos I., Assimacopoulos D.

Topic:

Climate change mitigation and adaptation

Stakeholder mapping and analysis is essential in Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) projects to assess and identify the needs of stakeholders (SHs). For the mapping of actors involved in adaptation planning and implementation in Greece, a multi-criteria analysis is followed. The SHs involved in CCA...Read more

Development of an urban resilience indicator for Athens in the context of climate change

(Corresponding) Polydoros A., Mavrakou T., Cartalis C.

Topic:

Climate change mitigation and adaptation

Urbanization interacts with climate change through the way cities are organized and built (land cover/ land use, urban morphology). Increased energy consumption and consequently CO2 emissions, combined with emissions from city functions (urban metabolism, anthropogenic heat sources) intensify urban...Read more

Dairy farms management and carbon storage in the soil fractions

(Corresponding) Ferreiro-Domínguez N., Rigueiro-Rodríguez A., Miranda M., Mosquera-Losada M.

Topic:

Climate change mitigation and adaptation

The dairy sector is one of the main economic activities in the Spanish region of Galicia, located in the northwest of the country. In dairy farms, the type of farm management has a clear effect on climate change mitigation by modifying crucial processes such as carbon storage in the soil. This...Read more
