DRIVE4EU: Dandelion Rubber and Inulin Valorization and Exploitation for Europe (DRIVE4EU)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2014, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2018,
"Natural rubber (NR) is an essential renewable material for more than 40,000 products essential to building (adhesives, sealants), medicine (gloves, tubing), and transportation (matting, tyres) industries. In many applications NR cannot be replaced by synthetic rubbers. At the moment NR is harvested exclusively from the rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) of which 90% is grown in South East Asia. Wor ...

Long-term woodland dynamics in Central Europe: from estimations to a realistic model (LONGWOOD)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2016,

However, there is more to this landscape change than the simple disappearance of woodland. Forests have been brought under various management regimes, which profoundly altered their structure and species comp ...

EU-based Production and Exploitation of Alternative Rubber and Latex Sources (EU-PEARLS)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2008, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2012,
"Natural rubber is a widely used raw material essential to industry, medicine, transportation and defence, whose major source, the rubber tree Hevea brasiliensis, is currently both sustainable and environmentally beneficial. However, increased worldwide demand for natural rubber and latex means that alternative sustainable sources are urgently required. In order to meet this challenge, we propose ...

Coordination Action for Research Activities on Life in Extreme Environments (CAREX)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2008, Date de fin: 30 juin 2011,
"Life in Extreme Environments (LEXEN) is an emerging area of research in which Europe has considerable expertise but a relatively fragmented research infrastructure. The science of such environments has enormous relevance for our knowledge of the diversity and environmental limits of microbial, plant and animal life and the novel strategies employed for survival and growth. Such studies are esse ...

Enhancements of Pest Risk Analysis Techniques (PRATIQUE)
Date du début: 1 mars 2008, Date de fin: 31 mai 2011,
"PRATIQUE (Enhancements of Pest Risk Analysis Techniques) will carry out all the key work listed in the call and address the major challenges for pest risk analysis (PRA) in Europe. This will be achieved through three principal objectives: to assemble the datasets required to construct effective PRAs valid for the whole of the EU, to conduct multi-disciplinary research that enhances the techniques ...
