On 29 April 2025, the mid-term workshop and Steering Group meeting of the project “Ice-jam flood risk management in Latvian and Lithuanian regions with respect to climate change” (ICEREG) took place at the Lithuanian Energy Institute (LEI) in Kaunas.
Project progress, budget, key results and challenges were discussed. Experts from the Lithuanian Energy Institute, Lithuanian Hydrometeorological Service under the Ministry of Environment, and Latvian Environment, Geology and Meteorology Centre presented insights on ice-jam flood modelling, river data analysis, climate change scenarios, and early warning systems.
The “ICEREG” project aims to enhance the management of ice-jam flood risk by developing comprehensive flood maps and refining the conceptual model of ice-jam flood formation, particularly in the context of climate change.
The Project is funded by the European Union’s Interreg VI-A Latvia–Lithuania Programme 2021–2027
