Adriatic DSS exploitation for MOnitoring and Risk management of coastal Extreme weather and flooding (AdriaMORE)

Description:

AdriaMORE project goal is to improve an existing integrated hydro-meteorological risk management platform focusing on the Adriatic coastal areas of Italy and Croatia capitalizing the major achievements of ADRIARadNet and CapRadNet projects that were successfully completed under the Adriatic IPA CBC Programme and were devoted to create a cross-border infrastructure of observing and forecasting systems for civil protection purpose.

General objectives of the project are:

• reinforcing the existing monitoring system;
• fostering and integrating the maritime environmental data in a coherent way with the hydrometeorological information;
• improving the hydro-meteo-marine risk forecast capabilities;
• assess the impact of coastal flood on geomorphological and biogeochemical parameters and coastal environment.

Specific objectives of the project include, among others, the adaptation of the hydrological model for coastal flooding prevention, the implementation of a numerical meteo-marine prediction model, the reinforcing of the monitoring and forecast system.
