Climate change predictions in Sub-Saharan Africa: impacts and adaptations (CLIMAFRICA)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2010, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2014,
Africa is probably the most vulnerable continent to climate change and climate variability and shows diverse range of agro-ecological and geographical features. Thus the impacts of climate change can be very high and will greatly differ across the continent, and even within countries. There is a urgent need for the most appropriate and up-to-date tools to better understand and predict climate chan ...

Sustainable Urban Metabolism for Europe (SUME)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2008, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2011,
"Societies in their urban (and also non-urban) segments, are extracting materials and energy from their natural environment, processing these flows, eventually accumulating portions of them as stocks and, in the end, deleting them into the environment as wastes, emissions or deliberate discharges. Urban settlements – cities – are a specific type of stocks in the metabolism of societies, and the wa ...
