KLIFF - Climate impact and adaptation research in Lower Saxony
Climate impact and adaptation research in Lower Saxony
Climate change is not a problem of the future; it is already measurable, and will strengthen based on current
knowledge. The aim of the research co-operation KLIFF, is to increase the knowledge base of the consequences
of climate change at regional and local scales, in order to develop sustainable adaptation strategies. The Aller-Leine river catchment, the Harz Mountains, the Lueneburger Heath and the North Sea coast will serve as model regions which may have differing sensitivity to climate change. This complex problem is being investigated in 7 research areas, and is addressed by scientists from 21 universities and research facilities.
