Projects

In the recently completed ADRIENNE project, we assessed how alternative human uses either alone or combined with other pressures may affect diversity, ecosystem functioning and services in the highly utilized and sensitive transboundary waterbody of the Gulf of Finland. This plethora of evidence was then integrated into the PlanWise4Blue portal, capable of assessing interactive responses of sector-specific human-induced stressors on the Gulf of Finland ecosystem under different nutrient load management and climate change scenarios. In this capitalization and clustering project, we aim to maximize the results already achieved by the ADRIENNE project.
