The ForestNavigator (Navigating European forests and forest bioeconomy sustainably to EU climate neutrality) Project is a new ambitious pan-European research project coordinated by IIASA and funded under the Horizon Europe Program. It brings together 24 research institutions from 13 EU countries and China to support the European Commission and national authorities in designing robust sectoral policies addressing forests and the forest sector for achieving climate neutrality in the EU.
The SOS-Water Project, funded under the Horizon Europe scheme and coordinated by IIASA, will create a holistic and participatory assessment framework of a Safe Operating Space (SOS) for the entire water resources system to inform global and regional water management policies and pathways.

The "IIASA Logistic Substitution Model II" (LSM2) is a software tool to estimate the parameters of technological growth and substitution processes. Applications include marketing research, scenario development, historical transition analyses, as well as meta-analysis across many individual technologies.
IIASA Interim Deputy General for Science, Wolfgang Lutz is invited to be the keynote speaker at the upcoming event co-hosted by Austrian Institute for European and Security Policy and Vienna School of Internal Studies to speak about the geopolitical consequences on global demographic development.
Establishing a Safe Operating Space for the global water resources system (SOS Water)
The interdisciplinary Doctoral Programme Climate Change (DK) at the University of Graz will host the DK Fall School 2022 "Transformation to Climate Neutrality".
In a new study published in Global Environmental Change, an international team of researchers from seven institutions, including IIASA, developed a first of its kind forest model intercomparison project (ForMIP) to estimate long-term futures for the world’s forests under different socioeconomic and climate mitigation pathways.
Against the backdrop of climate change and rising water demand, tools for adequately modeling water availability are much needed. In a new study, researchers applied a large-scale model linking surface water to groundwater, which can be used for estimating water resources at a high spatial resolution.
