Climate and Water under Change: Emerging challenges and strategies for coordinated action in the model region Berlin-Brandenburg

Beginn: Januar 2022
Ende: Dezember 2024

Climate change will affect the availability and the quality of fresh water, particularly through altering the characteristics and frequency of extremes such as droughts and flooding. This in turn puts the functioning of water-related sectors and ecosystem services at risk. The Einstein Research Unit CliWaC brings together scientific and practical expertise to study the governance of adaptation to climate change. It addresses the following questions with a focus on the model region Berlin-Brandenburg:
1. How will climate change affect different human-environment systems with respect to water-related hazards and the availability of good quality water?
2. What potential solutions exist for managing water resources and making human-environment systems resilient to water-related hazards?
3. Which forms of governance are available for coping with emerging challenges and implementing solutions and how can these be coordinated between stakeholders across administrative borders?
4. Which barriers resulting from legal issues, administrative constraints, public perception and related adaptive practices can be identified and how can they be overcome?
