The pathway “Adaptation to Climate Change through the management and restoration of estuarine ecosystems”, is composed of three MOOCs that address information on:
- Climate Change related services provided by estuaries and estuarine ecosystems, and quantification tools to assess them.
- Risk associated with climate change in coastal areas and estuarine-based adaptation strategies.
- Financial tools to support estuary restoration and conservation projects as adaptation measures to combat the consequences of climate change.
This course is intended for professionals, graduates and postgraduates interested in deepening their knowledge of the role of estuarine ecosystems as an adaptation measure in the context of climate change. As well as students coming from Biology, Environmental Sciences, Civil Engineering, Environmental Engineering, Economics, Marine Sciences, Geography, Meteorology, Physics, Renewable Energies, etc.
