Abstract
Il progetto di infrastruttura di ricerca e-LTER (the Long-Term Ecosystem Research in Europe)
è entrato nella roadmap ESFRI nel 2018. Attualmente la IR è in fase di preparazione, finanziata dalla EU.
Il coordinamento del nodo italiano è affidato al CNR, presso il Dipartimento di Scienze del Sistema Terra e Tecnologie per l'Ambiente (DSSTTA)che è impegnato per garantire all'Italia un ruolo primario nella costuenda infrastruttura europea eLTER - ESFRI.
Goals
The Long-Term Ecosystem Research in Europe (eLTER) is a new distributed Research Infrastructure which aims at integrating traditional natural sciences and holistic ecosystem research approaches, including studies of the human component, to better understand ecosystems. Through research and monitoring, eLTER seeks to improve our knowledge of the structure and functions of ecosystems and their long-term response to environmental, societal and economic drivers.
eLTER will provide indispensable integrated data sets - abiotic, biotic, societal, covering all system structures and functions - for system model development and validation, hence supporting predictions and decision-making in an interdisciplinary framework and in collaboration with other in situ, domain specific RIs.
eLTER contributes to the knowledge base informing policy and to the development of management options in response to the Grand Challenges.
