In 1990 a research project was funded by the Commission of the European Communities, within the frame of the funding programme EPOCH with the aim of evaluating the possibility of such integration. The project, which title was "A Comprehensive Forecasting System for Flood Risk Mitigation and Control"(AFORISM)(Todini, 1995c) aimed at verifying different approaches in rainfall modelling as well as in rainfall-runoff modelling and their integration in a decision support system both for planning and for real time flood forecasting and management. In order to do so a feasibility study, based upon the Reno river, aiming at integrating all the innovative technologies in an operational decision support tool for flood forecasting and flood impact analysis was carried out by the following research groups.  2, record 2, English, - A%20Comprehensive%20Forecasting%20System%20for%20Flood%20Risk%20Mitigation%20and%20Control

A research project on the possible effects of an accelerated sea level rise on the geomorphology and ecology of the Netherlands Wadden Sea was started in 1990 by the National Institute for Coastal and Marine Management/RIKZ of Rijkswaterstaat, the Directorate-General for Public Works and Water Management of the Netherlands Ministry of Transport, Public Works and Water Management. This project was carried out within the framework of the "Impact of Sea level On Society"(ISOS) project and the Netherlands national research programme(NRP) on Global Air Pollution and Climatic Change.  2, record 3, English, - impact%20of%20sea%20level%20rise%20on%20society

The potential consequences of climate change for The Netherlands were investigated in the study The Impact of Sea Level Rise on Society (ISOS). Various scenarios of climate change were considered, including sea level rise, changes in river discharge and storm patterns (the latter is defined as an unfavourable change in wind direction and an increase in wind intensity of 10%).  3, record 3, English, - impact%20of%20sea%20level%20rise%20on%20society

Impact management programs have generally incorporated two responses to the issue of financial security for environmental impairment: the establishment of special funds (e.g., an emergency response fund, a post-closure trust fund) and the institution of alternative dispute resolution procedures (e.g., joint community/operator committees, third-party mediation) to administer claims as quickly and fairly as possible  2, record 4, English, - impact%20management%20program
