Mass development of aquatic macrophytes - causes and consequences of macrophyte removal for ecosystem structure, function, and services.
Mass development of aquatic macrophytes (water plants) in rivers and lakes is a worldwide problem, and substantial resources are spent annually on removal of macrophytes. This approach, however, does not address the causes of the mass development and is not sustainable. [More](http://www.waterjpi.eu/joint-calls/joint-call-2017-ic4water/booklet/madmacs-1
maradentro
Severe shortage in good quality water reserves is a global problem that will increase with a growing world population. Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) will contribute to replenish depleted aquifers and restore ecological services in fresh water ecosystems. [more
newts
The research program addresses the issue of household water demand management. Prima facie, it aims to provide a socio-economic assessment of green nudging policies, focusing on water consumption controlling and proper understanding of the charging system by the households, taking into account adjustments in the pricing policy that nudges may generate (in view of their effects on water demand functions).

iaqueduct
An integrative information aqueduct (iAqueduct) is proposed to close the gaps between global satellite observation of water cycle and local needs of information for sustainable management of water resources. In the past decades, various satellite missions have been developed to monitor the global water cycle, in particular the variables related to precipitation, evapotranspiration and soil moisture, often at (tens of) kilometre scales of spatial resolution.

eviban
Evidence based assessment of NWRM for sustainable water management.
EviBAN will increase the knowledge on evidence based, sustainable management of water resources. This will be achieved by developing a toolbox for evaluation of adaptive management options and measures that account for impacts of climate change, anthropogenic activities and societal change in different regions of Europe and beyond.

https sites google com view control4reuse main
Control4Reuse is aimed at research and development of technologies for managing water resources. The optimization of water treatment and reclamation systems has been integrated as a sustainable solution to improve the reuse of this valuable water resource. The focus is on the reuse of wastewater (WW) in specific agricultural and industrial sectors. From a technological point of view, the scope of the project is based on a system monitoring and control framework, with specific activities of monitoring and integrating sensor information/data, mathematical modelling of processes and designing advanced control strategies.

Smart framework for real-time monitoring and control of subsurface processes in managed aquifer recharge applications.
The main objective of the SMART-Control project is to reduce the risks in the application of sustainable groundwater management techniques worldwide through the development and implementation of an innovative web-based, real-time monitoring and control system (RMCS) in combination with risk assessment and management tools (RAM). Managed aquifer recharge (MAR) represents an efficient water reuse technique to restore groundwater-dependent ecosystem services.

idoum
Innovative Decentralized and low cost treatment systems for Optimal Urban wastewater Management.
Reuse of treated wastewater is increasingly seen as one of the solutions to tackle the water scarcity problem and to limit the pollution load to surface water. Yet, using reclaimed water for non-potable purposes and particularly to irrigate food crops presents an exposure pathway for antibiotics and antibiotic resistant bacteria and genes (ARB&G) to enter the human food chain. Wastewater reuse is currently of particular concern as potential source of selective pressure that elevates the levels of antibiotic resistance in native bacteria.

nano carriers
Micro and NANOplastics as CARRIERS for the spread of chemicals and antibiotic resistance in the aquatic envirnment
An estimated 300 million tons of plastic were produced worldwide in 2015, and this number keeps increasing. This has resulted in a widely acknowledged presence of plastic debris of all sizes in the aquatic environment. The NANO-CARRIERS project will study the threat related to the plastics at the micro and nanometric size emitted through wastewater treatment plants to be trojan horses for chemicals and antibiotic resistance genes into aquatic ecosystems.
