EMPHASYS
www.hrwallingford.co.uk/projects/ERP
The outputs from the EMPHASYS R&D project on predicting estuary
morphology can be found at this site. This 2-year project was led
by HR Wallingford and carried out by the EMPHASYS consortium comprising
consulting engineers, research laboratories and university researchers.
The research was overseen by the Estuaries Advisory Group (EAG), an
expert committee responsible for overseeing the entire UK Estuaries
Research Programme. The EAG comprises representatives from UK funding
agencies, end users of the research, and other researchers. |

DINAS
coast project
DINAS-COAST stands for Dynamic and Interactive Assessment of National,
Regional and Global Vulnerability of Coastal Zones to Climate Change
and Sea-Level Rise. It is a new project under the EU Fifth Framework
Programme, Thematic Priority Mitigation and Adaptation to Global Change.
The overall goal of the project DINAS-COAST
is to produce a dynamic, interactive and flexible assessment tool
that enables its users to produce quantitative data:
- on a range of coastal-vulnerability
indicators,
- for user-selected climatic and socio-economic
scenarios and adaptation policies,
- on national, regional and global scales,
covering all 180+ coastal nations

EU EUROSTRATAFORM is a European Union-funded scientific research programme
exploring the fate of sediment particles from their source in rivers
through to their deposition on shallow deltas, the continental shelf
and deep sea basins. Over 20 laboratories and research organisations
in 9 different European countries will participate in this project. |
