The HydroEcoNex project is focused on the development of a system of monitoring the influence of hydropower engineering on the state of environment and ecosystem services delivered by Black Sea rivers, Dniester and Prut. The development of policy instruments and enhancement of human capacities for integrated water resource management in light of impacts caused by climate change, the dissemination of new knowledge and strengthening the transboundary cooperation in integrated monitoring of these impacts on river ecosystems are among important activities of the project. The project activities will be implemented by Institute of Zoology of the Academy of Sciences of Moldova in cooperation with International Association of River Keepers “Eco-Tiras”, Moldova; the University Dunarea de Jos Galati, Romania; the Ukrainian Scientific Center of Ecology of the Sea, and the Hydrometeorological Center for Black and Azov Seas, Ukraine, with a history of long term collaboration. The project’s team will use its own experience and available knowledge in environmental studies such as climate variability and change, river water and alluvial resources, water quality, aquatic ecosystems and biodiversity and their integrated monitoring, assessment of environmental impacts, and environmental policy and legislation. It will also work closely with authorities, public enterprises responsible for energy and water supply, environment protection and fishery, and newly trained specialists to ensure successful implementation and long-term sustainability of the project. The rivers on which the project focuses, Dniester River, shared by Ukraine and Moldova, and the Prut River – shared by Romania and Moldova are exploited for generation of hydropower and but also are the subject of transboundary debates and in need for joint environmental monitoring. Through application of most promising monitoring and environment assessment practices downstream the hydropower plant dams on these rivers, combined with the economic analyse of lost ecosystems services, historical information on climate and rivers stream flow, a system of innovative transboundary monitoring of the Black Sea river ecosystems transformation under impacts of hydropower development and climate change will be elaborated. This system will be incorporated into a strategy of bilateral cooperation on joint monitoring of transboundary rivers affected by hydropower. The project is relevant to the BSC work programme by its contribution to the coordination of environmental protection for transboundary rivers, affected by hydropower and climate change. Project results promote a shared prosperity and good neighborliness between Black Sea Basin countries, as the joint selection of common an unified monitoring indicators as well as information exchange between project target groups will generate cross-border compatible environmental databases and increase their availability. The total project cost is 896, 865 Euro. (English)
