Wasserressourcen im Klimawandel: Konsequenzen für Wasser-,Energie- und Landwirtschaft

Informationsveranstaltung und Stakeholdertreffen zum ÖAW-Forschungscluster Grundwasser

Zeitpunkt: 27.2.2020
Ort: Universität Graz, Hörsaal HS15.01, Resowi B
(siehe Lageplan unter https://campusplan.uni-graz.at/015BEG0002)


Wasserressourcen im Alpenraum sind in besonderem Maße von Auswirkungen des Klimawandels und von menschlichen Eingriffen betroffen. Die Konsequenzen für die Wasserwirtschaft, den Energiesektor und die Landwirtschaft sind bislang noch unzureichend verstanden. Seit Mitte 2019 werden von der Österreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften (ÖAW) vier interdisziplinäre Forschungsprojekte zum Thema Grundwasser gefördert, die eine Einbindung von Stakeholdern und Praxis-Akteuren anstreben. Im Zuge der Veranstaltung werden diese Projekte vorgestellt und es soll mit maßgeblichen Stakeholdern sondiert und diskutiert werden, welche Forschungsfragen aus
ihrer Perspektive aktuell besonders wichtig sind.

KURZBESCHREIBUNG DER VIER FORSCHUNGSPROJEKTE

  • ClimGrassHydro untersucht in einem weltweit einzigartigen Experiment die Auswirkungen von Dürreereignissen unter verschiedenen Klimaszenarien auf den Wasserhaushalt und die Produktivität von bewirtschaftetem Grünland.
  • Ziel von RechAUT ist Grundwasserneubildungsraten zu bestimmen, deren zukünftige Änderungen unter Berücksichtigung von Unsicherheiten auf unterschiedlichen Skalen vorherzusagen, und daraus resultierende Konsequenzen für die Landnutzung und das Wassermanagement für Österreich abzuschätzen.
  • Integrative Groundwater Assessment untersucht die Auswirkungen hydrologischer Extremereignisse auf den hydrologischen, hydrochemischen und ökologischen Zustand von Grundwasserkörper in den Alpen und deren Vorland, um Indikatoren zu entwickeln, die sich zur Überwachung und Beurteilung von Klimawandeleffekten auf Grundwassermenge und -güte eignen.
  • Flowcast entwickelt neue Methoden zur Charakterisierung von Struktur, Kapazität und Empfindlichkeit von Karstgrundwasservorkommen. Dies geschieht durch Kombination und neuartige Auswertung von Daten aus Bodenmessungen und eines neu entwickelten Drohnen-Flugmeßsystems.

Circular Bioengineering: FWF Cluster of Excellence aims to revolutionise the product cycle

Take a renewable raw material from nature – wood, for example – break it down into its building blocks and use them to create a functional material, such as a water-repellent surface coating, with the help of green chemistry. Once this has served its purpose, break it down again into its chemical components and use them to build something new. This idea is set to revolutionise the production and life cycle of materials and goods. The Cluster of Excellence "Circular Bioengineering", funded by the Austrian Science Fund FWF, is researching how to produce products from biomass, develop sustainable methods for the production process, and open options for returning products that have reached the end of their lifetime back into a cycle. The University of Graz is a partner in this Cluster of Excellence, for which the FWF is providing 18 million euros. Including its own funds, the total volume of the project is 27 million euros. The lead is with the BOKU University in Vienna.

Climate change update: ClimateTracer of the University of Graz provides reliable data

Yesterday, the Copernicus Climate Change Service of the European Union published its data on global warming up to end of November 2024. These confirm that this year will see the 1.5 °C threshold clearly exceeded for the first time. The Wegener Center at the University of Graz already computed an accurate full-year prediction: the global near-surface air temperature in 2024 will rise by 1.62 °C – plus/minus 0.05 °C standard deviation – compared to the pre-industrial level. Such latest predictions for 2024 and other essential data on climate change are provided by the scientists via the Graz Climate Change Indicators (GCCI) portal.

Novel Methods of Semiconductor Manufacturing: University of Graz is partner in EU project

How can technological innovations be aligned with principles of sustainability and circularity? This is a challenge being tackled by researchers at the Department of Environmental Systems Sciences at the University of Graz. As a partner in a new EU project, the team, led by Rupert Baumgartner, is contributing its expertise in sustainability assessment for the semiconductor manufacturing process. The focus of the research project “HaloFreeEtch” is on developing innovative, environmentally friendly etching methods for semiconductors.
