REWET
Rewet stands for 'REstoration of WETlands to minimize emissions and maximize carbon uptake'. Bureau Stroming is one of the 18 partners in this 4-year EU project. Besides technical and ecological aspects, economic and social aspects are also considered.
Open Labs
To gain broad practical experience, the restoration of wetlands is being carried out at seven locations in the field, each with strong differences. Bureau Stroming is collaborating with Wetlands International, WWF, Natagora, and WWF on OpenLab 5. Measures are being taken at two rivers in the Ardennes (the Bêche and Emmels) to retain water longer. The hydrological and ecological effects will be closely monitored in the coming years.
