Strategic location of case studies within the
river-coast continuum (Click to enlarge)

Case studies will be investigated that are located at different positions within the river-coast continuum.

Accordingly they will be affected to a different extent from continental impacts of CC (Increase of rainfall, rising groundwater level, increased frequency of high and low river discharge) and coastal ones (sea level increase, storm surges).

Existing data will be gathered for the sites, processes modelled, and – where necessary – event-based sampling surveys carried out. The influence of river emissions on coastal water quality will be modelled.

Risks from measured emissions to the local sites, river mouths and coastal environment will be evaluated.

By March 2012 the work package "Risk Analysis" has been completed. The major outcomes and results have been summarized in a short report compiled by the WP leader NGI. To view the report, click here.
