SUMMARY:Global\, Regional and Local Impacts of Climate Change – A European Union Perspective
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Tsanis\, Full Professor in the School of Environmental Engineering at the Technical University of Crete\, will be presenting “Global\, Regional and Local Impacts of Climate Change – A European Union Perspective”. \nDay & Time: Wednesday November 15th\, 2017\n12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m. \nSpeaker: Dr. Tsanis\nFull Professor\, School of Environmental Engineering\, Technical University of Crete (TUC)\, Greece\nDirector\, Water Resources Management and Coastal Engineering Laboratory\, TUC\nAssociate Member\, Climate Service Center Germany (GERICS)\nProfessor Emeritus\, Department of Civil Engineering\, McMaster University \nLocation: Conference Room at the Centre for Urban Energy\n147 Dalhousie St\nToronto\, ON M5B 2R2 \nContact: Omid Alizadeh \nOrganizer: Power & Energy Chapter \nAbstract: Following an introduction on European Union (EU) climate change projects and possibilities of international research collaboration\, this presentation will focus on climate change impact assessment applications at global\, regional (EU) and local scale (island of Crete). Climate change impacts on water resources (supply-demand)\, hydrometeorological extremes (floods and droughts) and on various sectors such as tourism\, cities and energy (PV) will be presented. Climate change impact assessment models can ensure that a wide range of important factors are taken into consideration in improving the engineering practices and plannings\, also from an energy perspective. \nBiography: Dr. Tsanis is a Full Professor in the School of Environmental Engineering at the Technical University of Crete (TUC)\, Greece\, a Director of the Water Resources Management and Coastal Engineering Laboratory at TUC\, an Associate Member of Climate Service Center Germany (GERICS) and a Professor Emeritus in the Department of Civil Engineering at McMaster University. \nDr. Tsanis is a graduate of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki\, Greece (Dipl. Civ. Eng.) and University of Toronto (M.A.Sc. and Ph.D.\, Civil Engineering). After receiving his Ph.D. he worked as a NSERC Visiting Fellow in the National Water Research Institute (NWRI) in Burlington and as a University Research Fellow and Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at McMaster University. \nDr. Tsanis is currently participating in several international research projects (NSERC\, FP7 & H2020\, ESA\, EEA) studying the impact of climate change on extreme events (droughts and floods)\, ecosystem tipping points\, agriculture\, cities\, tourism\, energy and climate change adaptation and governance in water management and forecasting of hydrometeorological extremes that produce floods with radar and satellite remote sensing and lightning activity.
