We are planning a EC medium scale project on landscape change in Europe and we are seeking potential candidate partners within EU and EU-candidate countries.
In particular, the project would focus on the analysis of factors and the mapping of hot spots in Europe as concerns typical landscapes which are vulnerable to climate change forcing, with special reference to geomorphic processes, hydrological processes, and ecosystem dynamics.
The project should attempt to single out specific landscape change hot spots, to select representative case studies, and to perform dynamical field-based, lab-based and modelling analysis of recent past, present and future change scenarios under the climate change forecasting patterns derived from IPCC and climate models. At the end, the results of the research would be to formulate a first-stage, regional-scale mapping of landscape susceptibility to change for the whole Europe territory.
The focus will not be on climate change models, but rather on landscape responses and resilience to them.
We endeavor the setup of an interdisciplinary group with partners from at least 3 different EU countries. Participation of non-EU countries may be possible under specific circumstances which will be clarified after the selection by the working group of the most suitable call-for-proposals.
A tentative deadline for the project submission is in next autumn, 2014.
Write me here or use the RG message system for further info.
If non EU countries are allowed I will be very much interested to work on thsi project. Kuwait can be seen as an extreme situation where the temp. is excessively high, dust storm are frequent, precipitation is excessively low. we have considerable baseline available. Let me know if inclusion of non-EU state is possible.
Yes, it will be under Horizon 2020.
And yes, I hope that participation will also be open to non-EU countries. Even though this is not very likely at the moment. That is, participation is always possible and welcome by EC. It is funding that is usually not possible.
We will have to look at the next available calls.
Hi Filippo,
Colleagues and I here at the James Hutton Institute in Scotland are interested in the potential to develop a proposal. Please contact me and we can discuss ideas etc in more detail.
Regards,
Mike
We will interested to take part, please take contact.

Hi Filippo,
My reseach group (Remote Sensing and Geoenvironmental Cartography) from the Polythecnical University of Valencia (Spain) are interested in to knok something more about your proposal. Please, contact me and we can discuss about it with detail.
Regads,

I work in CTCV (www.ctcv.pt) in Portugal, a non-profitable organization. We work in several fields including environmental area, soil and geology..
We have accredited laboratories and qualified personal in these areas.
We have also project experience (R&D) in these fields.
Please feel free to contact us ([email protected]).

Hello Filippo, me and my department are interested in this project. Contact [email protected]
Dear Filippo, we are very much interested in this, the focus that we currectly have an can contribute is spatially highly resolved economic data on the building infrastructure (100mX100m raster), contact [email protected]
Hi,
If you are still looking for hydrologists especially working in Alpine Areas you can contact me.
Good luck
Christophe
Dear Filippo,
we will be interested. I plan to come to Florence because of the possibility of the ERASMUS exchange.
regards, Vít V.
