Climate related hazards

This series refers to datasets related to the potential occurrence of a climate-induced physical event or trend that may cause loss of life, injury, or other health impacts, as well as damage and loss to property, infrastructure, livelihoods, service provision, ecosystems and environmental resources. It includes datasets on flooding, drought, urban heat island and heatwaves, extreme temperatures and precipitations, fire danger as well as climate suitability for vectors of infectious diseases. The datasets are part of the European Climate Adaptation Platform (Climate-ADAPT) accessible here: https://climate-adapt.eea.europa.eu/

Trophic interactions in the soil of rice-rice and rice-maize cropping systems

Subproject 3 will investigate the effect of shifting from continuously flooded rice cropping to crop rotation (including non-flooded systems) and diversified crops on the soil fauna communities and associated ecosystem functions. In both flooded and non-flooded systems, functional groups with a major impact on soil functions will be identified and their response to changing management regimes as well as their re-colonization capability after crop rotation will be quantified. Soil functions corresponding to specific functional groups, i.e. biogenic structural damage of the puddle layer, water loss and nutrient leaching, will be determined by correlating soil fauna data with soil service data of SP4, SP5 and SP7 and with data collected within this subproject (SP3). In addition to the field data acquired directly at the IRRI, microcosm experiments covering the broader range of environmental conditions expected under future climate conditions will be set up to determine the compositional and functional robustness of major components of the local soil fauna. Food webs will be modeled based on the soil animal data available to gain a thorough understanding of i) the factors shaping biological communities in rice cropping systems, and ii) C- and N-flow mediated by soil communities in rice fields. Advanced statistical modeling for quantification of species - environment relationships integrating all data subsets will specify the impact of crop diversification in rice agro-ecosystems on soil biota and on the related ecosystem services.

Versöhnen von fragmentierten und umstrittenen Landschaften

RECONNECT konzentriert sich auf die Entkopplung der Erhaltung der biologischen Vielfalt von anderen Anliegen an Landschaften und Gesellschaften. Fragmentierung, Konflikt und Entkopplung können institutioneller, ökologischer und sozialer Natur sein. Dies äußert sich in unterbrochenen ökologischen Strömen durch Habitatnetzwerke, in isolierter sektoraler Planung und in pluralen Lebensstilen und Werten - was zu Spannungen zwischen Erhaltungs-, Gerechtigkeits- und Produktionszielen führt. Wir werden mit Stakeholdern zusammenarbeiten, um anhand von vier Fallbeispielen fundiertes Wissen über die Möglichkeiten des Umgangs mit institutionellen, ökologischen und sozialen Grenzen zu gewinnen. Untersuchungsgebiete in Frankreich, Deutschland, Südafrika und Schweden erstrecken sich entlang von Stadt-/Land-Gradienten mit kontrastierenden Arten des Managements von Schutzgebieten und umliegenden Landschaften. Der inter- und transdisziplinäre "Wiederverkopplungs"-Ansatz wird erreicht durch 1) die Entwicklung eines kohärenten Satzes von Instrumenten und Prozessen zur systematischen Identifizierung und Bewertung der Verbindungen zwischen Ökosystemen, gemeinschaftlichen Werten und verschiedenen institutionellen Arrangements; und 2) die Entwicklung von Governance-Modellen und -Praktiken zum Offenlegen und zur Bewältigung von Spannungen sowie zur Verbindung von Menschen und Ökosystemen. Sozial-ökologische System- und Governance-Forscher werden im Arbeitspaket (WP) 1 den sozial-ökologischen Kontext für den Schutz der biologischen Vielfalt bewerten und integrierte Governance-Optionen für die Durchführung wirksamer Erhaltungsmaßnahmen identifizieren. Naturschutzbiologen und funktionelle Ökologen nutzen in WP2 ihre Fähigkeiten in der Modellierung von Biodiversität und Ökosystemdienstleistungen, um die verschiedenen Dimensionen der funktionellen Konnektivität zu quantifizieren. In WP3 erforschen Landschaftsökologen und Geographen die Werte der Natur und identifizieren Synergien und Bereiche für die Wiedervernetzung. In WP4 versuchen Experten für institutionelle Analyse und Wissenskooperation, verschiedene Bereiche für Zusammenarbeit und Konfliktmanagement zu bewerten. In WP5 führen Experten für Nachhaltigkeitswissenschaften und transdisziplinäre Deliberation die Synthese der Projektergebnisse durch. Spezialisten für Naturschutzpolitik und Kommunikation werden in WP6 die Ergebnisse über einschlägige Kommunikationsplattformen wie PANORAMA und das EU Knowledge Centre for Biodiversity verbreiten. Gemeinsam werden die Arbeitspakete sektorübergreifende Governance in die Umsetzung des Globalen Biodiversitätsrahmens nach 2020 einbringen.

Member States' greenhouse gas (GHG) emission projections

The Governance of the Energy Union and Climate Action ((EU) 2018/1999) requires Member States to report national projections of anthropogenic GHG emissions. Every two years, each EU Member State shall report GHG projections in a ‘with existing measures’ scenario for the years 2020, 2025, 2030, 2035, 2040, 2045 and 2050 by gas (or group of gases) and by sector. National projections shall take into consideration any policies and measures adopted at Union level. The reported data are quality checked by the EEA and its European Topic Centre for Climate Change Mitigation and Energy (ETC/CME).

Model Output Statistics for HOBURG_/_GOTLAND (02680)

DWD’s fully automatic MOSMIX product optimizes and interprets the forecast calculations of the NWP models ICON (DWD) and IFS (ECMWF), combines these and calculates statistically optimized weather forecasts in terms of point forecasts (PFCs). Thus, statistically corrected, updated forecasts for the next ten days are calculated for about 5400 locations around the world. Most forecasting locations are spread over Germany and Europe. MOSMIX forecasts (PFCs) include nearly all common meteorological parameters measured by weather stations.

Sustainable Water Resources Management in the Yanqi Basin, Sinkiang, China

Irrigation in the Yanqi Basin, Sinkiang, China has led to water table rise and soil salination. A model is used to assess management options. These include more irrigation with groundwater, water saving irrigation techniques and others. The model relies on input data from remote sensing.The Yanqi Basin is located in the north-western Chinese province of Xinjiang.This agriculturally highly productive region is heavily irrigated with water drawn from the Kaidu River. The Kaidu River itself is mainly fed by snow and glacier melt from the Tian Mountain surrounding the basin. A very poor drainage system and an overexploitation of surface water have lead to a series of environmental problems: 1. Seepage water under irrigated fields has raised the groundwater table during the last years, causing strongly increased groundwater evaporation. The salt dissolved in the groundwater accumulates at the soil surface as the groundwater evaporates. This soil salinization leads to degradation of vegetation as well as to a loss of arable farmland. 2. The runoff from the Bostan Lake to the downstream Corridor is limited since large amount of water is used for irrigation in the Yanqi Basin. Nowadays, the runoff is maintained by pumping water from the lake to the river. The environmental and ecological system is facing a serious threat.In order to improve the situation in the Yanqi Basin, a jointly funded cooperation has been set up by the Institute of Environmental Engineering, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) , China Institute of Geological and Environmental Monitoring (CIGEM) and Xinjiang Agricultural University. The situation could in principle be improved by using groundwater for irrigation, thus lowering the groundwater table and saving unproductive evaporation. However, this is associated with higher cost as groundwater has to be pumped. The major decision variable to steer the system into a desirable state is thus the ratio of irrigation water pumped from the aquifer and irrigation water drawn from the river. The basis to evaluate the ideal ratio between river and groundwater - applied to irrigation - will be a groundwater model combined with models describing the processes of the unsaturated zone. The project will focus on the following aspects of research: (...)
