Development of a Danube-wide flood forecasting system
Assessment of existing national and international flood forecasting
Development of a system for timely and reliable flood forecasting and information based on the relevant regional and national systems
Improvement of existing systems and their interconnection, e.g. by the implementation of mathematical models and radars, which can give a quantitative forecast of precipitation, by provision of additional information to national and regional flood-forecasting authorities, by including plans for early warning evacuation
Further development and testing of a basin-wide Danube Flood Alert System in cooperation with the FP EG as part of the European Flood Alert System for medium-range forecasts, e.g. based on the LISFLOOD system
Development of a strategy for flood protection
Development of a strategy for flood protection
Development of early warning systems on droughts and low flows
Consideration of European and national levels
Provision of information on spatial extent, duration, time of occurrence in relation to the crop calendar, and severity
Monitoring and the advertising about the decreasing of debits/drought at national level
Development of further appropriate measures for action
Checking the adequacy of existing measures, identification of gaps and suggestion of new measures where gaps are identified
Involvement of stakeholders for engagement to realise decisive measures to tackle water scarcity
