ASTERIS project aims at identifying and mapping needs and barriers in risk management and to provide practical tools for a sustainable management through the identification of boundary conditions at a local scale. To this overall objective, the project will provide two main outputs: a map of vulnerability to coastal salinisation at the macro-regional scale (Adriatic) based on future scenarios for sea-level rise and the hydrological cycle, and guidelines for the management of vulnerable site defined though an analysis of representative case studies in Italy and Croatia.
