Climate, Volume 13, Issue 1

2025 January - 20 articles

Cover Story: The ClimEmpower framework introduces a pioneering, user-driven approach to advancing climate resilience across the following five climate-vulnerable regions in Southern Europe: Costa del Sol (Spain), Central Greece, the Troodos Mountains (Cyprus), Osijek-Baranja (Croatia), and Sicily (Italy). By conducting region-specific climate risk assessments, engaging stakeholders through Communities of Practice, and delivering tailored climate services, the project addresses common hazards—droughts, heatwaves, and floods—as well as unique challenges like salinization and biodiversity loss. By bridging data gaps, fostering collaboration, and building capacity, ClimEmpower provides innovative and scalable solutions that align with the European Green Deal, supporting effective adaptation planning and informing future research. View this paper
