SpongeScapes: Evidence and Solutions for improving SPONGE Functioning at LandSCAPE Scale in European Catchments for increased Resilience of Communities against Hydrometeorological Extreme Events

SpongeScapes旨在巩固、扩大和传播科学知识，以改善土壤、地下水和地表水系统的海绵功能，以加快所有利益攸关方的拨款。SpongeScapes将有助于增强气候对景观规模极端水文事件的适应能力：我们将在140个现有案例中回顾和展示解决方案的有效性，在X个个案研究中进一步详细了解流程，并与利益相关者一起通过共同设计景观规模的海绵战略来提升这方面的知识。我们通过对不同水文气象极端事件在当前条件和未来情景下的有效性进行现实评估，使个别解决方案和战略更贴近市场。考虑到气候、地质、地形、土壤特性和土地利用，我们为利益攸关方提供了绘制机会图和自我评估在当地情况下增加地下水、土壤和地表水系统海绵功能的潜力的方法。X案例研究提供了各种各样的海绵措施和战略，使人们能够评估它们的主要功能、共同利益和潜在的权衡，以及适合执行的治理和政策环境。利用案例研究的验证数据，SpongeScapes改进了最先进的开源(地理)水文建模工具，并加强了海绵战略影响评估的量化，将详细的过程理解与景观规模评估联系起来。在案例研究中，我们将与各种公共和私人利益攸关方合作，这些利益相关者直接受到或参与到与改善海绵景观功能相关的变化中。持有者包括当地决策者和社区团体，他们直接受到与景观规模上的海绵功能相关的变化的影响。

SpongeScapes aims to consolidate, expand and disseminate scientific knowledge to improve the sponge function of soil, groundwater and surface water systems to accelerate the appropriation by all stakeholders. SpongeScapes will contribute to enhancing climate resilience against hydrological extremes at landscape scale: We will review and demonstrate the effectiveness of solutions in 140 existing cases, further detail process understanding in X individual case studies, and upscale this knowledge together with stakeholders by co-designing sponge strategies on landscape scale. We bring individual solutions and strategies for upscaling closer to the market by providing realistic evaluations of their effectiveness under different hydrometeorological extreme events in current conditions and future scenarios. We provide stakeholders with methods to map opportunities and self-assess the potential for increasing sponge functioning of groundwater, soils and surface water systems within the local context, taking climate, geology, topography, soil characteristics and land-use into account. The wide variety of sponge measures and strategies provided by the X case studies enables assessments of their primary functioning, co-benefits and potential trade-offs, and suitable governance and policy environments for implementation. Using validation data from case studies, SpongeScapes improves state-of-the-art, open source (geo-)hydrological modelling tools and enhances the quantification of sponge strategy impact assessments linking detailed process understanding to landscape scale evaluations. In the case studies we will collaborate with a various public and private stakeholders directly impacted by, or involved in, changes relating ot improving sponge functioning at the landscape scale. Stakteholders include local decision-makers and community groups, who are directly impacted by changes related to sponge functioning on landscape scale.
