The project runs for five years and is funded by the Horizon programme of the European Union. It brings together over 40 partners from 13 countries. Representatives of Mat\u00eds and Austurbr\u00fa attended the meeting on behalf of the Icelandic research site in East Iceland, where the project is being carried out in close collaboration with municipalities, institutions, businesses and other stakeholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\"The main meeting of the NATALIE project in Venice served as a forum for aligning the status of the project, strengthening our understanding and sharing lessons learned between research sites, and discussing next steps in the implementation and development of the nature-based solutions being worked on in the project.

Demonstrations included how water flow can be slowed, water management improved and flood risk reduced through interventions that work with natural processes. Seeing solutions \"in action\" \u2013 and discussing both successes and challenges \u2013 provided valuable insights that will be of use in ongoing work in Iceland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"320\" src=\"https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.34-2-1024x320.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-56202\" srcset=\"https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.34-2-1024x320.png 1024w, https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.34-2-300x94.png 300w, https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.34-2-768x240.png 768w, https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.34-2-1536x479.png 1536w, https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.34-2-18x6.png 18w, https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.34-2.png 1820w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Collaboration, Dialogue and Next Steps<br><\/strong>The meeting in Venice underscored the importance of connecting research, local knowledge and implementation. NATALIE is now entering its third year of operation and will continue to focus on translating findings into practical actions at the project's case study sites \u2013 including in East Iceland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Research and Development in East Iceland: Water Quality and Algal Blooms<br><\/strong>East Iceland is one of eight research sites in the project, with participants including Mat\u00eds, Austurbr\u00fa, Green Fish and the University of Exeter. In East Iceland, work is focused on strengthening coastal management and community resilience to climate-related challenges, with particular emphasis on water quality, such as increasing resistance to the risk of algal blooms. In close collaboration with stakeholders in the region, the project has identified key risk factors and assessed which nature-based solutions might be most suitable. These include constructed wetlands and integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA), where organisms such as seaweed and shellfish can bind nutrients and thereby reduce nutrient loading in fjords.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"438\" src=\"https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.48-1-1024x438.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-56203\" srcset=\"https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.48-1-1024x438.png 1024w, https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.48-1-300x128.png 300w, https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.48-1-768x329.png 768w, https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.48-1-1536x658.png 1536w, https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.48-1-18x8.png 18w, https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.48-1.png 1794w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>But Why Do Nutrients in Fjords Matter in This Context?<\/strong><br>Algal growth is driven by the natural interplay of oxygen conditions, temperature, light and stratification in seawater. In Iceland, however, baseline nutrient loading can result from untreated or inadequately treated wastewater from populated areas, and the increased growth of aquaculture in recent years has in many places led to greater nutrient loading in fjords and coastal ecosystems. Rising seawater temperatures then increase the likelihood of algal blooms, their frequency, and make them more persistent than previously in a cooler climate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.59-1-1024x667.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-56204\" srcset=\"https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.59-1-1024x667.png 1024w, https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.59-1-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.59-1-768x500.png 768w, https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.59-1-1536x1000.png 1536w, https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.59-1-18x12.png 18w, https:\/\/matis.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/Screenshot-2026-01-14-at-10.29.59-1.png 1794w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Creatium lineatum in a sample from Rey\u00f0arfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur taken on 15 September 2021.

Valsd\u00f3ttir).<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Alongside research work carried out in the area, GreenFish has developed a digital monitoring system that uses daily Sentinel-3 satellite imagery and calculates a cyanobacteria index to detect signs of algal blooms. The system can provide advance warning 2\u20133 days earlier than conventional water sampling and delivers outputs including heat maps, dashboard information and notifications that support improved preparedness and informed decision-making in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nature-based solutions can help mitigate algal bloom problems by capturing or removing dissolved nutrients from seawater before they become available for algal growth. Integrated multi-trophic aquaculture (IMTA) can be particularly effective: organisms such as seaweed and\/or shellfish take up nutrients from the water and bind them into biomass, thereby reducing the nutrient supply available for algal blooms. With regular monitoring and sound coastal management, this approach can support improved water quality and strengthen ecosystem resilience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further information:<br><a
