On 22 and 23 October 2019, the 3rd International Colloquium on Climate Change in Mountain Areas, organised by the Pyrenean Observatory on Climate Change (OPCC) and the Aragon Region, current Presidency of the Pyrenees Working Community (CTP), will be held at the Jaca Congress Centre (Huesca).
The UN has published the report"Sustainable Development in Mountain Areas", focused on the vulnerability of mountain ecosystems to natural disasters, climate events and unsustainable use of resources.
The OPCC2 project is one of the 8 finalist projects in the Interreg Project Slam competition, selected among more than 40 applications from all over Europe. The competition supports innovation and creativity in means of communication of Interreg projects, which help to raise awareness of Interreg and European cohesion policies among the general public.
The geoportal has been developed by the OPCC as one of its most powerful tools for providing the general public with access to crucial data on the impacts of climate change in the Pyrenees.
The layers of geolocated information available in the portal are complemented over the years by the OPCC’s partner projects conducting crossborder research on both sides of the Pyrenees.
On May 30 2019, the Moraine association (French Pyrenees Glaciers Observatory) successfully completed its annual measurement of the average accumulation in the form of snow over the entire Ossoue glacier.
