Description du projet
Un cadre européen pour la gestion des risques liés au climat
Les activités européennes en matière de résilience face au changement climatique restent fragmentées. Le projet Climateurope, financé par l’UE, vise à coordonner et à renforcer la base de connaissances de l’Europe, afin d’améliorer la gestion des risques liés au climat. Plus précisément, il favorisera les synergies, réduira la fragmentation et encouragera l’alignement entre les différentes activités. Pour ce faire, l’équipe élaborera un cadre européen pour la modélisation du système terrestre et les initiatives de services climatiques. Ce cadre s’appuiera sur un réseau géré comprenant des activités et des organisations européennes, nationales et internationales. En outre, Climateurope coordonnera et intégrera différentes initiatives européennes en matière de modélisation, d’observations et d’infrastructures de services dans le domaine climatique. Il formera des groupes d’experts multidisciplinaires chargés d’évaluer les progrès en matière de modélisation du système terrestre et de services climatiques en Europe. Ces groupes identifieront les lacunes et les besoins existants, ce qui facilitera l’intensification des activités de communication et de diffusion.
Objectif
The Climateurope Action will coordinate and support Europe’s knowledge base to enable better management of climate-related risks and opportunities thereby creating greater social and economic value. Climateurope has four main objectives:
1. Develop a European framework for Earth-system modelling and climate service activities. The framework will be built around a managed network of European, national and international activities and organisations. Such a network does not yet exist but is becoming increasingly necessary.
2. Coordinate and integrate European climate modelling, climate observations and climate service infrastructure initiatives (including JPI-Climate, Climate-KIC, Copernicus C3S) and facilitate dialogue among the relevant stakeholders, including climate science communities, funding bodies, providers and users. This will improve synergies, reduce fragmentation and promote alignment between activities. The user communities will include public sector, businesses, industry and society.
3. Establish multi-disciplinary expert groups to assess the state-of-the-art in Earth-system modelling and climate services in Europe; and identify existing gaps, new challenges and emerging needs.
4. Enhance communication and dissemination activities with stakeholders, in particular through events to bring the network together and showcase progress; stakeholder-oriented reports on the state-of-the-art in Earth-system modelling and climate services in Europe; operating a website; and undertaking additional stakeholder interactions to increase awareness and maximise project impacts.
This CSA will deliver a range of highly beneficial impacts. Two key impacts are (i) to greatly enhance the transfer of information between suppliers and users to improve the resilience of European society to climate change and mitigation of the risk of dangerous climate change; and (ii) to improve coordination to increase efficiency, reduce fragmentation and create synergies with international R&I programmes.
