BlueAdapt

We have joined a consortium of partners throughout Europe for a 4 year Horizon Europe funded project called BlueAdapt. The project looks at the health risks from coastal pathogens as our climate heats up, and runs from October 2022 to September 2026.
The team includes biologists, climate scientists, economists, epidemiologists and public health experts - amongst other things we'll be working on a Cornwall case study to help generate action and identify potential barriers to adaptation.
This builds directly on the Local Climate Adaptation Tool - we'll be figuring out how to build in new features and better datasets to help people understand and adapt to future pathogen risks from climate change.
Any datasets we produce can be found on our project Zenodo community.
BlueAdapt is funded under the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under Grant Agreement No 101057764. UK participants in Horizon Europe Project BlueAdapt are supported by UKRI grant number 10039058 (Then Try This).
