La Fondazione CMCC al Festival delle Scienze di Roma "In bilico tra terra e mare. Dalla scomparsa della sabbia all’erosione costiera" 📅 13 Aprile 2025, ore 11:00 📌 Roma, Auditorium Parco della Musica Il Festival delle Scienze Roma torna dall’8 al 13 aprile all’Auditorium Parco della Musica Ennio Morricone con la sua ventesima edizione. Il CMCC è partner scientifico dell’evento e porterà al Festival una serie di incontri su ambiente e clima. Il secondo appuntamento è con "In bilico tra terra e mare. Dalla scomparsa della sabbia all’erosione costiera", con: - Francesca Alvisi Ricercatrice CNR – ISMAR - Giordano Giorgi Responsabile del Progetto MER, ISPRA - Giovanni Coppini Direttore del Global Coastal Ocean CMCC Modera Giovanni Spataro Giornalista scientifico “Le Scienze” Le coste sono corpi vivi, dinamici e vulnerabili, continuamente messi alla prova da erosione, innalzamento del livello del mare ed eventi estremi. La sabbia, risorsa essenziale di spiagge e fondali, sta diventando sempre più scarsa e contesa, alimentando una crisi ambientale globale. Attraverso la conoscenza dei delicati equilibri naturali, dell’impatto dell’attività umana e dei cambiamenti climatici, il mondo della ricerca prova a definire le strategie più efficaci per proteggere questi fondamentali corpi naturali, indispensabili per il benessere ambientale e sociale.

Venice welcomes a new hub for ocean knowledge with the opening of the SEA BEYOND Ocean Literacy Centre, an initiative by UNESCO-IOC and Prada Group, developed with key scientific contributions of CMCC. Located on the island of San Servolo, a cultural hub in the Venetian Lagoon, the Centre is designed to engage a wide audience in understanding the ocean’s role in our lives and the urgent need for its protection.

La Fondazione CMCC al Festival delle Scienze di Roma 2025 "Comunità che si adattano" 📅 12 Aprile 2025, ore 14:30 📌 Roma, Auditorium Parco della Musica Il Festival delle Scienze Roma torna dall’8 al 13 aprile all’Auditorium Parco della Musica Ennio Morricone con la sua ventesima edizione. Il CMCC è partner scientifico dell’evento e porterà al Festival una serie di incontri su ambiente e clima. Il primo appuntamento è con "Comunità che si adattano", un panel con: - Francesca Giordano, ricercatrice ISPRA - paola mercogliano, ricercatrice senior Fondazione CMCC - Filomena Pietrapertosa, ricercatrice senior CNR – IMAA La crisi climatica richiede un forte impegno comune per fronteggiare gli eventi meteorologici estremi che sempre più frequentemente colpiscono le nostre città, minacciando la società, gli ecosistemi e l’economia. Parola d’ordine per le città è adattarsi. Il mondo della ricerca è impegnato a supportare e sviluppare strategie per rendere le nostre aree urbane resilienti, capaci di affrontare le minacce causate dal cambiamento climatico, come precipitazioni intense e ondate di calore, anche attraverso il coinvolgimento attivo di cittadini e cittadine.

💧 Water is life. But it’s also economy, culture, and identity Especially in regions like #Puglia, where agriculture is not just a productive sector, but a cornerstone of the local society and landscape 🌾🇮🇹 A new study has just been published — which I co-authored together with paola mercogliano and Roberta Padulano — exploring how climate change is influencing irrigation demand in one of Italy’s most agricultural regions. You can read it here 👉 https://lnkd.in/drg7rFxz. 📈 Shifts in growing cycles, changing rainfall patterns, and more frequent extreme weather events are already putting pressure on Puglia’s agricultural systems. The paper provides an overview of current irrigation practices, water management challenges, and potential adaptation strategies to move toward a more resilient and sustainable future. 🙏 A heartfelt thank you to Acquedotto Pugliese SpA for their valuable support and collaboration throughout the project. Their expertise and commitment were key to the success of this work. Grateful as well to everyone who generously shared their time, knowledge, and resources to make this research possible. 👉 It’s time to rethink how we manage water — not just as a technical resource, but as a common good to protect, now more than ever. #water #agriculture #climatechange #sustainability #Puglia #southregions #Italy #resilience #irrigation #watermanagement CMCC Foundation - Centro Euro Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici

Join us on April 9, 2025 for the Adaptation AGORA webinar "Citizen engagement in climate adaptation processes: lessons learned from Adaptation AGORA and CLIMAS’ experiences" #CitizenEngagement is one of the key factors to ensure successful climate change risk adaptation strategies and plans, however decision-makers and practitioners often find it difficult to truly generate an interest and proactive participation from the individuals living in their regions. Two Horizon Europe projects, CLIMAS and Adaptation AGORA have been focusing on implementing specific frameworks and methodologies to generate greater interest, engagement and deliver co-creation, co-production, co-design and co-implementation of climate change adaptation processes.

#News | AI improves seasonal predictions of extreme tropical Atlantic events New research led by CMCC researcher Marie-Lou Bachelery, harnesses the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to predict extreme Atlantic Niño and Benguela Niño events up to 3 months in advance. This offers an unprecedented opportunity to safeguard marine ecosystems and local economies, whilst also laying the groundwork for future applications on other hard-to-predict phenomena worldwide.

"Global Harms, Local Profits: How the Uneven Costs of Natural Disasters Affect Support for Green Political Platforms" 🌐 CMCC Talks 📅 10 April 2025, 12:00 CEST 🎙️ With Silvia Pianta and Cristina Cattaneo, CMCC Extreme events are becoming increasingly common due to climate change. While conventional wisdom suggests that firsthand experiences with natural disasters foster green coalitions by raising awareness of environmental degradation, we propose an alternative view: natural disasters can heighten the perceived trade-off between economic development and environmental policies. This study examines the case of Brazil, where large-scale fires, by clearing natural vegetation, create new opportunities for land grabbing and the expansion of agriculture and livestock production. Using satellite, administrative, and electoral data, we show that large-scale fires increase support for green candidates only in municipalities unlikely to gain economically from the fires. Survey data further indicates that voters prioritize environmental protection over economic growth only when they stand to receive limited or no benefit from the newly cleared land. Our findings suggest that the potential for natural disasters to foster green coalitions is contingent upon their distributive effects. Register to attend: https://ow.ly/pzYy50VpAHS
