4. CMCC – Centro euro-Mediterraneo per i Cambiamenti Climatici Italian Ministry for the Environment, Land and Sea The problems of interest Assess the environmental quality of the Montenegro coastal area and the Bojana river today and in the future scenarios Assess the environmental quality of the Montenegro coastal area and the Bojana river today and in the future scenarios Study the local water cycle over Montenegro in order to assess the impact of global change on the coastal area, the Bojana river sediment transport, the water quality in the river and the coastal zone. Study the local water cycle over Montenegro in order to assess the impact of global change on the coastal area, the Bojana river sediment transport, the water quality in the river and the coastal zone. Develop and implement a coastal area, river and urban waters integrated management system that considers state-of-the-art observational and modelling components.
