New Directions in Seismic Hazard assessment through Focused Earth Observation in the Marmara Supersite (MARSITE)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2012, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2016,
The recent devastating earthquakes and associated tsunamis in Japan, Indonesia, and Haiti, which killed more than half a million people, highlighted how mankind is still far away from a satisfactory level of seismic risk mitigation. Among the regions around the Mediterranean Sea for which earthquakes represent a major threat to their social and economic development, the area around the Marmara Se ...

Isotope constraints on the contribution of metal-rich magmatic fluids to back-arc seafloor hydrothermal systems (IsoBAB)
Date du début: 22 févr. 2011, Date de fin: 21 févr. 2013,
Chemical exchanges between the lithosphere-ocean-atmosphere are focused at the active plate boundaries and are important in the global geochemical balance. Eventually, they may influence climate and impact on human activities. Hydrothermal circulation at these boundaries is the engine that transfers chemicals between the lithosphere and ocean. However, the structure of lithospheric contribution (h ...

Hotspot Ecosystem Research and Man's Impact on European seas (HERMIONE)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2009, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2012,
The HERMIONE project is designed to make a major advance in our knowledge of the functioning of deep-sea ecosystems and their contribution to the production of goods and services. This will be achieved through a highly interdisciplinary approach (including biologists, ecologists, microbiologists, biogeochemists, sedimentologists, physical oceanographers, modelers and socio-economists) that will in ...

European Multidisciplinary Seafloor Observation (EMSO)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2008, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2012,
"The European Multidisciplinary Seafloor Observation - Preparatory Phase (EMSO-PP) is a 4-year project with the main objective of establishing the legal and governance framework for EMSO, an infrastructure servicing scientists and other stakeholders in Europe and outside Europe for long-term deep water observation and investigation. The Preparatory Phase will handle all further actions towards the ...

The Deep Sea & Sub-Seafloor Frontier (DS³F)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 30 juin 2012,
"The Deep Sea and Sub-Seafloor Frontier project (DS³F) provides a pathway towards sustainable management of oceanic resources on a European scale. It will develop subseafloor sampling strategies for enhanced understanding of deep-sea and subseafloor processes by connecting marine research in life and geosciences, climate and environmental change, with socio-economic issues and policy building. Sub ...

"In situ monitoring of oxygen depletion in hypoxic ecosystems of coastal and open seas, and land-locked water bodies" (HYPOX)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2009, Date de fin: 31 mars 2012,
"Hypoxic (low oxygen) conditions in aquatic ecosystems increase in number, duration and extent due to global warming and eutrophication. Global warming will lead to degassing of oxygen, increased stratification, reduced deep-water circulation and changes in wind patterns affecting transport and mixing. Projected increases in hypoxia (e.g. doubling of “dead zones”) are accompanied by enhanced emiss ...

Iron geobiology at deep-ocean hydrothermal vents (IronGeoBioVent)
Date du début: 14 sept. 2009, Date de fin: 25 nov. 2011,
Rimicaris exoculata is a caridean shrimp that lives in the deep ocean around active high-temperature hydrothermal sites. This chemosynthetic vent species maintains dominant populations at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and is highly adapted to life in this extreme environment. Feeding mechanism include grazing on sulfides from hydrothermal chimneys and living in symbiosis with bacteria that are cultivated ...

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 ...
