Facts and numbers
A decadal meta-program; more than 1,000 scientists involved since 5 years of operational existence ; yearly observation and measurement campaigns allowing development of observation and information systems on, for non-exhaustive examples : extreme events, atmosphere pollution, biodiversity, and anthropization ; 23 euro-Mediterranean countries involved.
Why and how MISTRALS ?
MISTRALS is an interdisciplinary meta-program for systematic observations and research dedicated to the Mediterranean Region:
- To anticipate, at the Mediterranean Region scale, the consequence of the global change
- To answer societal challenges related to the future of the Mediterranean under global change pressures,
- Challenges cover highly priorities to answer such as resources sustaining, pollution fighting, landscapes uses,
- Based on research and its translation into applications and actions covering population needs for the development and the sustainability of the Mediterranean countries under climate change and globalization forcings.
MISTRALS is organized around programs covering highly priorities topics developed in accordance with the societal and environmental needs of the partner countries, such as:
- Resources sustainability
- Sustainable farming and land uses
- Water and resources management
- Regional patterns for climate evolution
- Earth’s deep processes and impacts on environment
- Natural risks prevention
- Resilience of sea and atmosphere to perturbations, and evolution of their bio-geo-chemistry
- Anthropization and sustainability of natural and anthropized lands
- Biodiversity and environmental forcings on ecosystems
