This technical report provides a non-exhaustive overview of modelling tools currently available to simulate future environmental change at a European scale. Modelling tools have become an important cornerstone of environmental assessments, and play an important role in providing the data and...

The present report contains six case studies that illustrate regional adaptation to key water resource issues resulting from climate change and other causes such as increased water use. In addition to detailed literature analysis for each region, the case studies included interviews with...

The global population is congregating in our cities. Eighty per cent of the world’s estimated nine billion people in 2050 are expected to live in urban areas. Our cities and urban areas face many challenges from social to health to environmental. The impacts of cities and urban areas are felt...

This paper addresses the following question: Is there any kind of effective density for the description of momentum transport of a compressible fluid in porous media? Pioneering 1956 Biot’s results and subsequent experimental and theoretical work suggest the convenience of introducing an...

The occurrence of swarms of small bubbles in a variety of industrial systems enhances their performance. However, the effects that size polydispersity may produce on the stability of kinematic waves, the gain factor, mean bubble velocity, kinematic and dynamic wave velocities is, to our...

The objective of this study is twofold: first to analyze how the implementation of the EU energy tax policies will affect the EU and its Member States and secondly to analyze how energy tax policies can contribute to climate policy objectives in the enlarged EU.

The objective of this study is twofold: first analyze how the implementation of the EU minimum energy tax policy in the new Member States will affect the enlarged EU and secondly analyze how the energy taxation policy can contribute to the climate policy in the enlarged EU. The main elements of...
