CLIWAT
The project CLIWAT aims at identifying the means to better adapt to climate change, reduce risks and protect society and nature in a more extreme climate. The project follows a case-study approach in the Netherlands, Belgium, Danmark and Germany. It focuses on the following three fields of intervention:- transboundary groundwater models will be developed to reveal the consequences of the climate change on waterworks and important aquifers in the region;
- effects of the increased leaching from agricultural and industrial land sites and landfills on groundwater quality will be further investigated;
- recommendations will be developed concerning future legislation, new standards for engineering of drainage, building of roads and buildings and other coping and adaptation mechanisms.
