Why this matters

•    The Mediterranean regions are facing increasing drought risk and water stress. 
•    Water decisions depend strongly on seasonal precipitation and water availability. 
•    In Greece, water resources planning information is often fragmented and SEASONEXT targets a unified, fit-for-purpose approach. 
 

What SEASONEXT delivers 

1.    Improved seasonal forecasts (1–7 months ahead) using sources of predictability and machine learning downscaling. 
2.    Hydrological modelling for Crete to translate climate forecasts into water-relevant projections. 
3.    Seasonal Outlooks Prototype Platform (web) with probabilistic scenarios and interactive visualisation. 
4.    WRM Decision Analytic Framework to explore trade-offs across management options and support decisions with stakeholders. 
 

Who it is for 

•    Water authorities & reservoir operators in Crete
•    Policy makers and planners
•    Agricultural communities and other affected sectors
