LIFE + EnvEurope Final Conference

Second announcement

in conjunction with the
LTER-Europe Annual Conference

26 th – 29th November 2013
National Research Council (CNR)
P.le Aldo Moro 7 - Rome
Room Marconi and Room Convegni

In building a site network for biodiversity and ecosystem research since 2004, LTER-Europe has identified a set of requirements in the field of cross-site workflows, network design, tools for information management,
harmonization and standardization. The LIFE+ project EnvEurope has successfully tackled these requirements over the past 4 years. The products of EnvEurope and the approaching Horizon 2020 are the entry point for the next phase in designing the European research infrastructure landscape in the field of biodiversity and ecosystem research.
A key challenge for LTER-Europe, with its highly instrumented observational sites and socio-ecological research platforms, is how best to cooperate and integrate with both large scale monitoring schemes (including remote sensing) and experimental approaches. The interaction with key stakeholders at the joint conference in Rome will form a milestone on this way.
