Nature-based solutions for climate change adaptation and water pollution in agricultural regions (6JRC/IPR/2019/OP/0394)

JRC (EU)

ABERON is consortium partner of the Slovenian company LIMNOS for this assignment. Two pilot case studies will be developed in depth, in order to build a homogeneous base of evidence about the practical feasibility, effectiveness and limitations of NBS to address a variety of agricultural water management issues. This base of evidence, together with the broad literature and other examples already known in Europe and elsewhere, will be used for a research synthesis aimed at a generalized assessment at European scale, and production of policy recommendations.

LIMNOS and Aberon are working under LOT 1 “Treatment of wastewater sludge or manure from livestock in a Nordic or Alpine environment” and LOT 2 “Treatment of wastewater sludge in a continental environment”.

ABERON is analysing the direct and indirect benefits of the NBS in both Lots, including case study data collection and analyses, Investment costs analysis, O&M cost analysis, Cost recovery analysis and Elaboration on the costs analysis.
