Combatting Bacterial Resistance in Europe (COMBACTE-NET)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2013, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2019,
The emergence of Antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) is a global problem, having recently been elevated to the top three threats identified by the World Health Organisation (WHO), and subject of numerous national and international government activities, including the Trans-Atlantic Task Force on Antimicrobial Resistance established by the US and EU presidencies. The estimated costs of ARB are aro ...

Permafrost Carbon Cycle Observations and Modeling across multiple spatiotemporal scales (PERCCOM)
Date du début: 1 mars 2013, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2017,
Permafrost ecosystems in the high Northern latitudes are estimated to store about 1700 Petagram of carbon, which is roughly 50% of the total global belowground carbon, or about double the amount currently contained in the global atmosphere. Future climate projections indicate a strong warming potential for these regions over the next century, which may significantly alter the biogeochemical proces ...

Integrated non-CO2 Greenhouse gas Observing System (INGOS)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2011, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
InGOS will support and integrate the observing capacity of Europe for non-CO2 greenhouse gases (NCGHG: CH4, N2O, SF6, H2 and halocarbons). The emissions of these gases are very uncertain and it is unknown how future climate change will feedback into the land use coupled emissions of CH4 and N2O. The NCGHG atmospheric abundances will increase further in the future and the emissions of these gases a ...

Changing Permafrost in the Arctic and its Global Effects in the 21st Century (PAGE21)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2011, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2015,
Permafrost is defined as ground that remains continuously at or below 0°C for at least two consecutive years; some 24% of the land surface in the northern Hemisphere is classified as permafrost. In the Northern high latitudes, strong warming has been observed over the recent decades, and climate models project strong future warming. A projected decline in the extent of permafrost will have a major ...

Climate change predictions in Sub-Saharan Africa: impacts and adaptations (CLIMAFRICA)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2010, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2014,
Africa is probably the most vulnerable continent to climate change and climate variability and shows diverse range of agro-ecological and geographical features. Thus the impacts of climate change can be very high and will greatly differ across the continent, and even within countries. There is a urgent need for the most appropriate and up-to-date tools to better understand and predict climate chan ...

Multi-Core Execution of Parallelised Hard Real-Time Applications Supporting Analysability (parMERASA)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2011, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2014,
Engineers who design hard real-time embedded systems express a need for several times the performance available today while keeping safety as major criterion. A breakthrough in performance is expected by parallelising hard real-time applications. parMERASA targets a timing analysable system of parallel hard real-time applications running on a scalable multi-core processor. Several new scientific a ...

"Quantifying and modelling pathways of soil organic matter as affected by abiotic factors, microbial dynamics, and transport processes" (QUASOM)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2008, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2014,
"Soils play a critical role in the coupled carbon-cycle climate system. However, our scientific understanding of the role of soil biological-physicochemical interactions and of vertical transport for biogeochemical cycles is still limited. Moreover the representation of soil processes in current biosphere models operating at global scale is crude compared to vegetation processes like photosynthesi ...

Anticipating climate change and biospheric feedbacks within the Earth system to 2200 (GREENCYCLESII)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2013,
"There is a pressing need to improve our understanding of climate processes and their impacts in order to develop appropriate adaptation and mitigation measures. Increasing concentrations of anthropogenic greenhouse gases (GHGs) are known to be causing changes in global climate patterns, and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. However, our ability to predict future climatic states i ...

In-service Aircraft for a Global Observing System - European Research Infrastructure (IAGOS-ERI)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2008, Date de fin: 31 août 2013,
"It is proposed to establish a sustainable distributed infrastructure for global observations of atmospheric composition from a large fleet of in-service aircraft. This will be achieved by installing autonomous instrument packages aboard initially 10-20 longrange aircraft of internationally operating airlines. IAGOS-ERI will provide high quality in-situ observations of greenhouse gases and reactiv ...

The terrestrial Carbon cycle under Climate Variability and Extremes – a Pan-European synthesis (CARBO-Extreme)
Date du début: 1 juin 2009, Date de fin: 31 mai 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 ...
