Greenhouse gas management in European land use systems (GHG Europe)
Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2013,
The GHG-Europe project aims to improve our understanding and capacity for predicting the European terrestrial carbon and greenhouse gas (GHG) budget by applying a systematic, comprehensive and integrative approach. GHG-Europe quantifies the annual to decadal variability of the carbon and GHG budgets of terrestrial ecosystems in EU27 plus Switzerland and in six data-rich European regions via data-m ...

The terrestrial Carbon cycle under Climate Variability and Extremes – a Pan-European synthesis (CARBO-Extreme)
Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: May 31, 2013,
The aim of this project is to achieve an improved knowledge of the terrestrial carbon cycle in response to climate variability and extremes, to represent and apply this knowledge over Europe with predictive terrestrial carbon cycle modelling, to interpret the model predictions in terms of vulnerability of the terrestrial – in particular soil – carbon pools and give according advice to EU climate a ...

Integrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS)
Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2013,
The ICOS project will build an infrastructure for co-ordinated, integrated, long-term high-quality observational data of the greenhouse balance of Europe and of adjacent key regions of Siberia and Africa. Consisting of a centre for co-ordination, calibration and data in conjunction with networks of atmospheric and ecosystem observations, ICOS is designed to create the scientific backbone for a bet ...

Precipitation pattern effects on plant-soil microbial interactions (PPEPSI)
Start date: Mar 1, 2009, End date: Feb 29, 2012,
"Global environmental change is predicted in Europe to result in increased frequency and intensity of extreme climatic events, including severe droughts and intense precipitation events. Such changes will affect plant physiology, microbial activity and soil nutrient cycling, inducing changes in ecosystem functioning, with expected consequences on in plant community composition, net primary product ...

Evaluating the effects of species composition and biodiversity on ecosystem water fluxes in a changing climate (BIWACLIM)
Start date: Dec 1, 2007, End date: Nov 30, 2010,
Research addressing the effects of global change on ecosystem ecology has mainly focused on carbon cycling, while the consequences for ecosystem water pools and fluxes have received little attention. Given the important regulating role of the vegetation for ecosystem hydrology it is hypothesized that global change will not only affect ecosystem water relations directly (e.g. by altered precipitati ...
