Improving the design of nature-based solutions to manage stormwater (NBSsw) can play a pivotal role in climate adaptation, resilience of urban vegetation, and enhanced social benefits in cities. The GreenStorm project is set to assess, based on coupled monitoring/modelling, how NBSsw structures perform in a wide range of European climates, as well as in climate extremes such as high intensity rainfall and drought. A real case study in Copenhagen will illustrate NBSsw implementation in a community-engaged approach. To identify drivers for NBSsw upscaling, the project will also rely on feedback from Paris, Athens, Genoa and Östersund. The five partner countries will explore the potential for widespread implementation of NBSsw at urban catchment scale and model its benefits.
