So-WATCH project kick-off
October 21st, 2016
Abstract
Andrea Castelletti and his research group take part of So-Watch project, one of the new projects funded by Fondazione Cariplo.
The project involves DEIB and the Department of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences – Production Landscape, Agroenergy of Università degli Studi di Milano.
The So-Watch project aims to develop and test a novel decision-analytic framework to assist decision-makers in designing and assessing alternative soft-path measures to increase the system flexibility by means of distributed and participatory management, coordination mechanisms, low-cost and reversible infrastructural interventions, and smart economics. This increased flexibility will contribute in improving the overall water productivity at the river basin scale by making water management more efficient under current and projected hydro-climatic and socio-techno-economic conditions. The framework will be developed for the Lake Como river basin, Italy.
