Abstract

Developing DEMO-sites to highlight the efficiency of Pondscapes as Nature Based solution for adaptation and mitigation to changing climate

Aurélie Boissezon (HEPIA, Genève)

One main aim of PONDERFUL is to evidence how ponds and pondscapes, as Nature-Based Solution (NbS), can help society to mitigate and adapt to climate change, protect biodiversity and deliver ecosystem services. Indeed, ponds and pondscapes have already been highlighted as key-systems for biodiversity. But they also include e.g. impact on greenhouse gases fluxes, water provision, flood and extreme events control, regulation of water quality, learning, inspiration and recreation, which all impact the human well-being.

A key outcome of PONDERFUL is to provide the legislators, policy makers, practitioners, land managers, farmers, and SMEs with the guidance tools to support the establishment of a low-cost and highly effective approach for implementation of NbS based on ponds and pondscapes.

Here I will present the network of 15 DEMO-pondscapes that we co-develop with stakeholders throughout Europe and Uruguay. These pondscapes are representative of the diversity of NbS that can be easily implemented elsewhere. I will explain here how we are assessing their effectiveness for increasing resilience of biodiversity and ecosystem services to climate change, highlighting best practices to be promoted in Europe.
