Workpackage 6
A national conference. The ecological consequences of weather and climate changes for freshwater and marine ecosystems: managerial and environmental policy perspectives
Leader: FBL. Participating institutions: the entire Consortium
The goal of the programme is to perform ecological analyses that can enable us to identify the influence of climate variability on aquatic ecosystems and thus to provide the possibility of separating the impacts of climate changes and other anthropogenic disturbance. State-of-the-art modelling of regional climate change, hydrology and ecology enables ecological prognoses to be made for different types of aquatic systems. At its most advanced stage, this is where basic science reaches the interface to environmental management and environmental policies.
To conclude the project the objectives are to:
- present and discuss obtained results and their possible consequences at a national conference
- produce a book where the most important results are summarised and made available to a broader audience
