Adaptação às alterações climáticas através da gestão e restauração dos ecossistemas estuarinos europeus

Relatório LAYMAN disponível AQUÍ

Contexto

As áreas costeiras são vulneráveis a muitos das alterações climáticas como o aumento do nível do mar. Isto é especialmente importante na Europa, onde muitas pessoas vivem junto da costa.

Abordagem

As soluções baseadas na natureza aproveitam os recursos próprios da natureza para fornecer uma alternativa sustentável às estratégias tradicionais de defesa costeira, como diques.

Solução

O projeto LIFE ADAPTA BLUES visa dar visibilidade a investigações sobre ecossistemas estuarinos de modo a melhorar a adaptação às alterações climáticas nas áreas costeiras do Atlântico europeu.

LIFE Adaptablues Project Releases Layman Report in Five Languages

The LIFE Adaptablues project has recently published its Layman Report in five different languages, making its findings and recommendations accessible to a broader audience. This comprehensive report highlights the project’s efforts in promoting climate change adaptation and sustainable management of coastal ecosystems. By offering the report in multiple languages, LIFE Adaptablues aims to engage and [...]

LIFE AdaptaBlues Closing Meeting

This Wednesday 24 July, the LIFE AdaptaBlues project will have its final day. This public event will present the main results of the project, highlighting the important role of estuarine ecosystem conservation as an element of mitigation and protection against the effects of climate change on coasts. This closing day will also serve as a [...]

Published at Quercus magazine “El estuario de Oyambre: un laboratorio vivo en el litoral cantábrico”

Quercus magazine has published an article entitled “The Oyambre estuary: a living laboratory in the Cantabrian coast”, written by researchers of the LIFE AdaptaBlues project. This article highlights the ecological importance of the Oyambre estuary, located on the Cantabrian coast, as a natural space of great biodiversity and a key point for environmental research. [...]

We share our expertise with Portuguese professionals and managers at our workshop in Coimbra.

A technical workshop was held in the Coimbra region to disseminate the knowledge generated by the LIFE AdaptaBlues project in the Mondego estuary to local and regional stakeholders. The main goal of this workshop was to promote the application of estuarine conservation and restoration actions as Nature-based solutions for adapting to the effects of [...]

The project has started its workshops to disseminate the knowledge generated.

A technical workshop was held in Santander (Cantabria) to share and transfer the knowledge generated during the LIFE AdaptaBlues project to managers and society. The workshop aimed to present the main results regarding the climate risks in the estuaries of Cantabria, highlighting the value of the estuarine ecosystems as key elements for protecting of [...]

The postgraduate contest already has a winner

Isabel Gallego wins first place with her work about the adaptation of the Santander Bay (Cantabria) through the implementation of a saltmarsh monitoring system. Isabel will have the opportunity to present her work in the workshop that will be held in Cantabria with the coastal stakeholders. Congratulations for the winner! [...]

The restoration actions in the Mondego estuary has begun

The construction works began by the construction of wooden barriers aiming the reduction of the ebbing velocity in the pilot site. On the other hand, the saltmarsh transplantation concluded its 1st phase with Spartina maritima. Next Autumn/Winter we will transplant Bolboschaenus maritimus and Juncus to conclude salt marsh restoration action. [...]

CATÁLOGO DE MEDIDAS DE ADAPTAÇÃO

[/fusion_text][/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container] A publicação de catálogos de medidas de adaptação às alterações climáticas é uma ferramenta valiosa para ajudar os governos, as empresas e as comunidades a prepararem-se para os impactes das alterações climáticas. Estes catálogos fornecem orientações práticas sobre as medidas de adaptação que podem ser adoptadas para reduzir a vulnerabilidade e aumentar a resistência [...]

Visita da equipa da NEEMO ao Projecto LIFE Adaptabues

No passado dia 2 de Março recebemos a visita anual do nosso supervisor da equipa NEEMO para analisar a evolução do projecto LIFE AdaptaBlues. Os diferentes parceiros do projecto tiveram a oportunidade de apresentar todos os progressos realizados durante o último ano, apresentar os problemas identificados por cada um dos parceiros, bem como as [...]

A new paper about the impact of the coastal engineering infrastructure on the blue carbon habitats have been published.

Based on the data of the AdaptaBlues Life project, this paper contributes to increase the knowledge on the impact that the construction in coastal areas of civil engineering infrastructures can cause in intertidal habitats distribution and the ecological functions they provide for climate change adaption and mitigation.   Mazarrasa_et_al-2022-Scientific_Reports
