Скачать или смотреть Restoring EU coastal wetlands | The Danube Delta

The Danube Delta is the second-largest delta in Europe, a complex network of waterways, marshes, islands, and lakes, sprawling over 5,800 square kilometers. It is considered an important world biodiversity hotspot, been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a Ramsar Wetland of International Importance due to its exceptional biodiversity. Its rich variety of habitats provides crucial breeding, feeding, and resting grounds for numerous species of birds, fish, mammals, and plants. It is estimated that the Danube Delta is home to over 5,000 species of flora and fauna, many of which are rare or endangered.
The Danube Delta, located in the Black Sea and Stepic biogeographical regions, was selected as a Case Pilot for the RESTORE4Cs project due to its diverse wetland ecosystems and strategic importance in carbon storage and greenhouse gas (GHG) exchange. The delta offers a unique opportunity to test the project’s framework in situ and assess wetlands of varying conservation status (preserved, altered, restored).

RESTORE4Cs is a Horizon Europe project evaluating the impact of wetland restoration on climate change mitigation and ecosystem services. It aims to create a digital platform to help stakeholders assess the costs and benefits of restoration efforts and promote sustainable management. The project also focuses on engaging communities and supporting EU policies to preserve the ecological and social value of wetlands.
RESTORE4Cs will assess the environmental and socio-economic impact of wetland restoration in six European coastal regions by analysing carbon storage, greenhouse gas exchange, and biodiversity.
