The MedSeaRise project analyses the various classes of consequences of sea level rise in the Mediterranean to provide a risk assessment for both the anthropic and ecosystem impacts of sea level trends foreseen in the XXI century.
Based on available and collected information, the project partners are building an index system for comparing the sensitivity to hazard uncertainty of different areas in association with local stakeholders in the partner countries as one of the key tools for future joint response to preserving marine ecosystems and coastal areas.
Through the numerous case studies being conducted in different areas of the Mediterranean, the partners are analyzing potential anthropic and ecosystem risks of sea level rise based on available meteorological projections for different areas. They aim to generate data and services supporting the best practices of using sea level rise data for risk assessment and adaptation action.
One of the case studies is being conducted in the Bay of Kotor, analyzing the sea temperature variations and tidal data.
