The WISER project Sample Clauses

The WISER project. The majority of European freshwater ecosystems are degraded due to water pollution and alternations in hydrology and morphology. Consequently, many aquatic species have disappeared from entire eco-regions. To provide knowledge and tools to design cost-effective restoration measures, the WISER project started within the 7th Framework Program of the European Commission. The main objective of WISER is to support the implementation of the European Water Framework Directive (WFD) by developing tools for the integrated assessment of the ecological status of rivers, lakes and coastal waters. Besides improving existing and developing new assessment methods for all WFD biological quality elements, analysis and assessment of biological recovery processes in selected cases studies, is one of specific objectives of the WISER project. Therefore, a variety of modelling techniques is applied to address pressure-response relationships and to evaluate the effectiveness of restoration measures and to analyse how changes in climate may affect the ecological status and recovery processes. There is a long tradition in modelling lake ecosystems to analyse the biological responses to increased loading of nutrients. In recent years, different modelling techniques are applied to study the recovery processes and climate change impacts. Within the WISER project, the applicability of existing modelling approaches to analyse the impact of restoration measures and lake water management on lake ecosystem processes is reviewed. A limited set of existing modelling approaches were applied in two case studies: Lake Pyhäjärvi (Finland) and Lake Veluwe (the Netherlands): the results are reported in Deliverable 5.2-1. In this report, we review the applicability of different modelling approaches to analyse climate and land-use scenarios and restoration strategies based on literature and the experiences from case studies. In addition, this report provides guidance on lake ecosystem modelling in order to design and implement cost-effective restoration programmes and to develop climate robust lake management strategies.
