We were thrilled to host Sponge City Talks 4: Groundwater & Urban Resilience yesterday and welcome 39 participants from various regions. Your presence and engagement made it a truly valuable and inspiring event!
A special thank you goes to our speakers, whose presentations sparked meaningful discussion. Together, we explored:
-
Implementation of climate change scenarios in groundwater models,
-
Key threats to groundwater reservoirs, including reduced recharge, increased use, and other anthropogenic pressures,
-
A case study from the City of Stuttgart on prognostic modelling and active groundwater management in urban settings.
The interactive discussion highlighted the importance and timeliness of these topics for building urban resilience and securing sustainable water futures. We’re grateful for your active participation, thoughtful questions, and exchange of ideas — this is what MAURICE Sponge City Talks are all about.
Stay tuned for the next session!
