The Danube River may experience longer periods of low water levels and more extreme discharge days by the end of the century, impacting water supply, agriculture, navigation, and ecosystems. Accelerated restoration of wetlands could yield significant economic benefits, estimated at €47.3 billion by 2075. Connecting the river to isolated floodplains can mitigate risks from droughts and floods, but interventions must be tailored to local conditions. Climate change adds pressure to an already altered system, with projections indicating increased days of low and extreme discharge. Effective management of the river basin is crucial for balancing agricultural, navigational, and ecological needs. Restoration projects must clarify economic interests and ensure long-term maintenance for success.
