PaRCA
Pathways for Realising Climate Adaptation in the Wadden Sea
a project in the Joint German-Dutch Research Programme on Understanding Complex Pressures on the Wadden Sea
Team
An interdisciplinary team of Dutch, Danish, and German partners from natural and social sciences, engineering, and management forms the group of investigators and project partners in PaRCA .
Work packages
PaRCA is part of the German-Dutch research programme on the complex pressures and (cumulative) effects for the ecosystem, the options for action and their consequences for human life in this coastal region.
Aims
Sea level rise and changes in waves and currents will impact the tidal flat systems of the Wadden Sea. PaRCA analyses different measures to support tidal flat growth, spanning from direct and indirect nourishments to managed retreat.
