Prediction of the Impact of Climate change and urban sprawl on Ecosystem services

The project proposes an innovative platform and forecasting decision support tool (Astuce & Tic1) giving a synthesized vision of an area, measuring in real time, pressures, resilience potential and tipping points over natural resource assets (water quantity-quality are mainly addressed) and helping to manage ecosystem services under mounting climate and anthropogenic pressures. This has potential for radically transforming land management and resources based services and facilitating the transition of local stakeholders and economic actors to the quaternary economy.
