About Euro-Limpacs

Evaluating the Impacts of Global Change on European Freshwater Ecosystems

Euro-limpacs addresses key drivers of aquatic ecosystem change (land-use, nutrients, acid deposition and toxic substances), carrying out experiments to assess potential responses of different aquatic systems to future Climate Change and developing models that simulate the key processes involved.

Euro-limpacs is an Integrated Project under the EU Sixth Framework Programme Global Change and Ecosystems theme designed to assess the effects of future global change on Europe's freshwater ecosystems (EU Contract No. GOCE-CT-2003-505540). The project is co-ordinated by the Environmental Change Research Centre, University College London and has 36 partners.
