  • Danube: ICPDR Strategy on Adaptation to Climate Change developed in 2012 and updated in 2018, providing guidance on the definition of adaptation measures, such as restoring water retention areas and addressing water scarcity and droughts risks.
  • Elbe: climate change outlooks considered for the economic analysis of water use in the long-term.
  • Ems: assessment of future climate change impacts; climate proofing of measures considering their sensitivity to climate change impacts under different scenarios.
  • Meuse: joint status assessment of transboundary groundwater bodies; ongoing work for a joint report on water scarcity that will support the development of an updated framework for managing low-flow events (for the current framework see Case 6.1); ongoing work programme to increase information exchange on national and international activities related to climate change assessment and adaptation.
  •  Rhine: ICPR Strategy for Adapting to Climate Change developed in 2015, considering climate change impacts, discharge regime of the river, prolonged periods of low-flows and frequency of flood events under different scenarios; definition of basic principles of selecting adaptation measures.
  • Scheldt: initial exploratory Climate Memorandum signed, including droughts aspects, such as a discussion on possible restrictions to water abstraction.
