Local climate change projections
We design tools to simulate expected changes in future climate and assess how they may affect us through risk and vulnerability analysis.
About the project
Anticipating Climate to Defend Hydrographic Units (ACDUHA): the project has supported the natural defenses of different hydrographic basins in Spain through the development and prediction of Hazard Indices according to climate projections for the coming decades.
Objectives
In this way, a correct risk assessment allows the implementation of adaptive measures to improve the preservation of soils and forests in watersheds in the face of the dangers derived from increased evapotranspiration, associated erosion, increased risk of forest fires, among others.
Funded by
Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge through grants to third-sector entities or non-governmental organizations that carry out activities of general interest considered to be of social interest in the field of scientific and technical research and environmental protection under state jurisdiction. This research has been funded by the Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge but does not express its opinion.
