MEDiterranean Sea Acidification in a changing climate (MedSeA)
Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jul 31, 2014,
Increases of atmospheric CO2 and associated decreases in seawater pH and carbonate ion concentration this century and beyond are likely to have wide impacts on marine ecosystems including those of the Mediterranean Sea. Consequences of this process, ocean acidification, threaten the health of the Mediterranean, adding to other anthropogenic pressures, including those from climate change. Yet in co ...

Development of global plankton data base and model system for eco-climate early warning (GREENSEAS)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2014,
GreenSeas shall advance the quantitative knowledge of how planktonic marine ecosystems, including phytoplankton, bacterioplankton and zooplankton, will respond to environmental and climate changes. To achieve this GreenSeas will employ a combination of observation data, numerical simulations and a cross-disciplinary synthesis to develop a high quality, harmonized and standardized plankton and plan ...

Climate Local Information in the Mediterranean region: Responding to User Needs (CLIM-RUN)
Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Feb 28, 2014,
"CLIM-RUN aims at developing a protocol for applying new methodologies and improved modeling and downscaling tools for the provision of adequate climate information at regional to local scale that is relevant to and usable by different sectors of society (policymakers, industry, cities, etc.). Differently from current approaches, CLIM-RUN will develop a bottom-up protocol directly involving stakeh ...
