Description

The overall objective of the project is to improve the conservation status of Atlantic river corridors in the Natura 2000 network. The project will develop a transnational strategy of sustainable management of river corridor habitats in several Atlantic river basins of the Iberian Peninsula. The project will facilitate transnational cooperation to mitigate and correct the negative impacts of the threats the habitats are facing. These threats particularly affect the quality and continuity of riparian and alluvial forests with Alnus glutinosa and Fraxinus excelsior, a priority habitat listed in Annex I of the Habitats Directive and the main habitat targeted by the project. It will particularly focus on developing transnational strategies to prevent the spread of threats to other EU territories.
