The 6th thematic priority
The general objective is to implement a sustainable development model and to make a significant contribution to international efforts to:
* Mitigate adverse trends* Understand and control global change* Preserve the equilibrium of the
ecosystems
Three interrelated pillars of the 6th Priority:
“Sustainable Energy systems” “Sustainable Surface Transports” “Global Change and Ecosystems”

Water Cycle, including Soil-related aspects
The objective is to understand the mechanisms and assess the impact of global change and in particular climate change on the water cycle, water quality and availability, as well as soil functions and quality, to provide bases for management tools for water systems to mitigate the impacts.
Research will focus on: impact of climate change on the components of the hydrological cycle - land/ocean/ atmosphere interactions, groundwater/surface water distribution, freshwater and wetland ecosystems, soil functioning and water quality; assessment of vulnerability of water/soil systems to global change; management strategies, their impacts and mitigation technologies; scenarios of water demand and availability
