C5a - Flood risk management
The C5a project combines the outcomes of seven ongoing Interreg projects in the North Sea Region to deliver a cloud-to-coast approach to the management of flood risk. Within the C5a project, the Flanders Environment Agency (VMM) is working on an integrated approach for the Zwin area which focuses on establishing an optimal balance between nature, agriculture and housing.

STAR2Cs
The changing climate conditions increase the chance of floods, with a bigger impact on our lives. Despite this knowledge, climate adaptation plans are often left lying on the drawing board. STAR2Cs aims to bridge the gap between climate measures and local initiatives. VMM is working within the scope of this project on a river contract for the Zwalm river and local protection measures.

Publication Composition and source apportionment of PM10
This report describes a 14-month measurement campaign of the composition of particle matter (PM10) at five monitoring sites and a mobile station (trailer) in NW Europe. The objective was to establish a link between the composition of PM10 and air pollution sources and relate this composition to toxicological effects.

Blueprint for a System Dynamics Model
Commissioned by MIRA, VITO developed a prototype or blueprint for a 'system dynamics model for Flanders'. A system dynamics model captures the dependencies between the state variables that drive the dynamic behaviour of a system. This allows to calculate different combinations of scenarios and policy choices in a consistent manner, and to determine the medium- and long-term impact to be determined.

Publication Monitoring of ultrafine particles and black carbon
This report describes 2-year long measurements of ultrafine particles (UFP) and black carbon (BC) at four monitoring stations and a mobile trailer in the North-West European region. The main objective was to evaluate the feasibility of such measurements, understand spatiotemporal variation and assess the added value of these measurements.
