High-resolution climate downscaling insights for resilient nature-based water solutions:
The Al Murunah webinar ‘High-Resolution Climate Change Downscaling for Resilient Nature-Based Water Solutions in MENA,’ held on October 7, 2024, presented new insights on high-resolution and bias-corrected climate change downscaling to support the planning of Resilient Nature-Based Water Solutions demonstration projects across region. Technical findings include comprehensive climate baseline assessments and localized high-resolution projections for small basins in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and the Occupied Palestinian Territories.
The webinar highlighted the critical importance of reliable, high-resolution climate data for guiding effective local planning and decision-making. Underscoring the importance of partnerships among communities, governments, and researchers for sustainable solutions, the webinar brought together key Al Murunah project stakeholders, development professionals, climate-water-food nexus researchers, donor organizations and potential scaling partners.
