Changing land use and adaptation of land use management
Maintenance and expansion of the forest population in river basins by semi-natural reforestation, particularly in mountain and hilly ranges
Maintenance of the vegetation edging waterways to support biodiversity of these environments, and help against risk of flood damages
Implement land use regulation to preserve and enhance natural retention across the river basin
Reduction of impermeable areas and improvement of soil storage
Changing land-use
To maximize yield under new conditions
Use frequently flooded land for grazing instead of arable production
Harmful reduction of non-arable lands with afforestation
In taking advantage of modified agro-climatic conditions
Collaboration
Strengthening operational cooperation between the emergency response authorities in the Danube countries and improve the interoperability of the available assets in order to reduce damages, protect citizens and ensure an appropriate response to emergencies
Better communication among institutions, forecasting and warning service
