BRGM actions in links with the ICZM approach
C. Vinchon, D. Idier, G.Le Cozannet, C. Oliveros Coastal Risk and Climate Change Unit
Colloque Croissance Bleue -Athènes -25 novembre 2013
The coastal zone frame
> ICZM integrated approach of territories
> Coastal risks (erosion, marine inundation)• Increased by climate change (sea level rise, extreme
events)
• Increased by societal changes (changes in land use, demographic increases, migratory processes,….
=>Need of a holistic approach of risk, and implementation transdisplinary approaches
> European framework directives• MSFD, WFD, FD
• Ecosystemic approaches : Sea bed and water column integrated as support for biocenoses
• Flood risks
