Description du projet
Une technologie pour détecter l’impact du changement climatique sur les vignes
Le changement climatique affecte l’industrie viticole, menaçant le secteur d’effets sociaux et économiques négatifs. Dans ce contexte, disposer d’une méthode pour détecter et déterminer l’impact du changement climatique sur la vigne, le raisin et le vin semble nécessaire. Par ailleurs, il est également essentiel de trouver des solutions d’adaptation. Le projet vWISE, financé par l’UE, qui regroupe 13 partenaires représentant les principaux pays producteurs de vin dans le monde, entend promouvoir l’utilisation de technologies d’avant-garde et de techniques de pointe dans le domaine de la viticulture et de la vinification. Il se concentrera sur la mise au point de méthodes permettant d’estimer l’impact du changement climatique sur le secteur ainsi que sur les mesures d’adaptation possibles. En appliquant des techniques sophistiquées, il étudiera l’ampleur de l’impact du changement climatique et les modifications qui en découlent en termes de qualité, de métabolisme des micro-organismes et de processus de maturation des vignes et des raisins.
Objectif
vWISE is a RISE in the field of viticulture and oenology, which focuses on the consequences and solutions to the impact of climatic change on vines, grapes and wines: in particular on abiotic stress on vines and grape quality and ripening with genetic exploitation, reduction of alcohol level in wine by adapted yeasts and engineering process, adapted microorganisms to prevent spoilage, wine quality changes and sensorial preservation. Climate change represents a considerable threat to the wine industry in Europe that has social and economic consequences. This RISE comprises of 13 partners from France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Germany, Argentina, Australia, Chile and South Africa. The team is internationally recognized, highly qualified and employ cutting-edge technologies and emergent techniques. Synergies and complementarities between the research teams are already efficient and will develop further through the network.
The vWISE will:
-focus on innovation to develop methods tools and standards to help assess the impact of climate change scenarios and adaptation responses,
-permit 39 researchers mobilities with interweaving approaches in the increasingly sophisticated techniques required to gain insights into vines, grapes and microorganisms metabolism and to develop novel methods to fight against climatic changes and to give advances on wine authenticity,
-improve understanding of climate change and linkages with sustainable development,
-improve safety and biodiversity.
- Researchers will be able to integrate multi-level approaches to make conceptual advances in the field with the international
network, helping them to acquire operational experience, new knowledge, scientific methods and transferable skills that will ensure opportunities and career perspectives in R&D departments or management in private companies.
vWISE will make careers in European oenosciences and viticulture more attractive to scientists (young, junior and senior) after their mobilities.
