Description: Das Projekt "Water Scenarios for Europe and for Neighbouring States (SCENES)" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Universität Kassel, Wissenschaftliches Zentrum für Umweltsystemforschung durchgeführt. The SCENES project will develop and analyse a set of comprehensive scenarios of Europes freshwater futures up to 2025, covering all of 'Greater' Europe reaching to the Caucasus and Ural Mountains, and including the Mediterranean rim countries of north Africa and the near East. These scenarios will provide a reference point for long-term strategic planning of European water resource development, alert policymakers and stakeholders about emerging problems, and allow river basin managers to test regional and local water plans against uncertainties and surprises which are inherently embedded in a longer term strategic planning process. The scenarios developed by SCENES will be policy-relevant by identifying the requirements of stakeholders and decision makers, and including stakeholders in the scenario-building process. The SCENES project will deliver combined qualitative and quantitative scenarios. The qualitative scenarios (storylines) provide an internally-consistent picture of how water resources in different parts of Europe may develop up to 2025. The quantitative scenarios, produced by state-of-the art models, complement the story-lines by providing numerical information, and by 'enriching' the qualitative scenarios by showing trends and dynamics not apparent in the storylines. The qualitative scenario analysis will also focus on water quality, ecological and hydrological aspects, with special regard to the requirements of the WFD. Scenarios will be interactive and adaptive in the sense that they will be developed through a three phase approach. The first phase will be a fast track pan-European scenario exercise using existing information. The second phase will involve regional and pilot area scenario enrichment. The final phase will be the drawing together of results and dissemination of the scenario outputs. Prime Contractor: Finnish Environment Institute, Helsinki, Finland.
