Project Objective
This project aims to promote learning and enhance scientific understanding on i) impacts of interacting stressors on water quality and multiple dimensions of freshwater biodiversity, ii) critical social-ecological feedbacks that determine the use and co-production of freshwater ecosystems.
Call Objective
The Call addresses two major (non-exclusive) priorities: - Development and application of scenarios of biodiversity and ecosystem services across spatial scales of relevance to multiple types of decisions; - Consideration of multiple dimensions of biodiversity and ecosystem services in biodiversity scenarios.
