EGU session on 'Integration and co-location of Research Infrastructures and networks for addressing environmental challenges'
by Bäck, Jaana K 26 Nov '24

26 Nov '24

Dear all, this is an invitation for you and your colleagues to submit an abstract to the above identified, Interdisciplinary session at EGU 2025 (see session description below). The session will look at the co-benefits of multiple, co-located infrastrcutures and networks in the environmental domain. The abstract submission deadline is Wednesday, 15 January 2025, 13:00 CET Instructions can be found here: https://www.egu25.eu/programme/how_to_submit.html Hope to see you there! On behalf of all co-conveners, Jaana Bäck ITS5.2/BG0.10 Integration and co-location of Research Infrastructures and networks for addressing environmental challenges Convener: Jaana Bäck<https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU25/session/53881#> | Co-conveners: Thomas Dirnböck<https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU25/session/53881#>, Michael Mirt<https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU25/session/53881#>l The global grand challenges such as climate change, air pollution and biodiversity loss are not occurring in isolation in time or space – they are closely interconnected and have potential to amplify each other, create nonlinear feedbacks and result in significant loss of ecosystem services that eventually affect societal well-being and humanity. While immediate impacts sometimes receive considerable attention, little is known about their long-term and systemic effects often resulting from cross-scale interactions. Closing these knowledge gaps requires an improved, transdisciplinary understanding of the multifaceted environmental system - a prerequisite for the development of appropriate mitigation and adaptation measures. It also requires advanced tools and concerted efforts for integration of the data originating from diverse sources. European-scale research infrastructures and networks, e.g., ESFRI RIs like ACTRIS, AnaEE, Danubius, eLTER, ICOS, and other observation systems like WMO-GAW and ICP-IM, support the delivery of consistent, standardized data based on harmonized methodologies. The more RI networks are integrated through co-location of individual observation sites, the better understanding can be achieved on ecosystem state (e.g., terrestrial carbon storage), biogeochemical constraints (e.g., macronutrient cycles), societal drivers (e.g., land use change) and tradeoffs (e.g. biodiversity). This session will call upon presentations addressing the benefits and challenges of co-located in-situ observations, enabling researchers to address the systemic changes in a holistic manner and to advise the policymakers on cost-efficient tools for mitigation of environmental change. https://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU25/session/53881 Jaana Bäck Professor in Forest-Atmosphere Interactions Institute for Atmospheric and Earth System research Faculty of Agriculture and Forestry, University of Helsinki, Finland tel +358 50 4155297 ### Call for Abstracts and registration are open now: eLTER Science Conference<https://elter-ri.eu/science-conference> 23-27 June, 2025 [cid:5e9d2a4e-3c37-4e55-8894-28aed11c169d]

Invitation to the next ENVRI Board meeting
by Thelen, Ines-Marie 25 Nov '24

25 Nov '24

Dear members of the ENVRI Board, To introduce myself, my name is Ines Thelen, I am working for IAGOS at the Research Centre Jülich since 2018 and have been involved in the ENVRI Community since I started supporting the ENVRI-FAIR Management in 2020. As Andreas already announced in a previous meeting, I will take over Ulpus position as the ENVRI Board Secretary. As my first action, I will organise a last ENVRI Board meeting in 2024 on Wednesday, 18th December from 9:00 to 11:00 CET. I will send out a specific calendar invitation soon. Join Zoom Meeting <https://fz-juelich-de.zoom.us/j/65728264524?pwd=JJYbcJ68aBbpUHQNZFauesZ3nLL 2In.1> https://fz-juelich-de.zoom.us/j/65728264524?pwd=JJYbcJ68aBbpUHQNZFauesZ3nLL2 In.1 Meeting ID: 657 2826 4524 Passcode: 702969 The first topic is to thank Helen and Werner as chairpersons, to welcome Eija and Michel as the new chairpersons, and to introduce myself. In addition, the main item on the agenda will be the upcoming HORIZON Europe Calls. The ENVRI Board needs to decide about the ENVRI Clusters participation, particularly in the call for Thematic Nodes in EOSC which will open in April 2025. I am looking forward to welcoming you in the ENVRI Board meeting.

EIRENE - Join us at ICRI 2024
by Shachar D'vir 19 Nov '24

19 Nov '24

Dear colleagues, We would like to invite you to join us for two events co-organized or moderated by members of EIRENE<https://eirene.eu/> at the ICRI Conference<https://icri2024.au/>. 1. Breakout session (in person/online) Session 15: Using RI to investigate and document the impacts of the environment on human health (click for more details<https://icri2024.au/program/session-15-using-ri-to-investigate-and-document…>) When: Wednesday, December 4, 2.00pm - 2.50pm AEST (5:00am EST) This session will examine the complex interplay between environmental factors, social determinants, climate change, and human health, focusing on the vital role of global collaboration in research infrastructures (RIs). Key topics include investing in coordinated efforts to accelerate the translation of theoretical research into practical applications, and establishing global exposome collaborations to comprehensively study the cumulative effects of environmental exposures on health. The session will also highlight the integration of Indigenous knowledge systems to deepen our understanding of environmental changes and their impacts. By exploring these elements, we aim to identify future RI needs and foster innovative approaches to addressing global health challenges related to environmental and social factors. 1. Side event (in person) Human Exposure Assessment for the Evaluation and Prevention of Chemical Risks (click for more details<https://icri2024.au/human-exposure-assessment-for-the-evaluation-and-preven…>) When: Monday, December 2, 12:15PM – 5:00PM Where: QAEHS, 4/20 Cornwall St, Woolloongabba QLD 4102 Delivered by Queensland Alliance for Environmental Health Sciences Event Description This event focuses on the integration of existing research infrastructures into activities that investigate the impact of chemical exposure on health and the factors influencing it. The goal is to establish a Pacific Regional infrastructure network, leveraging existing networks from Europe and North America, to contribute to global efforts in creating a comprehensive human biomonitoring system. The session will take place on site at the Queensland Alliance for Environmental Health Sciences<https://qaehs.centre.uq.edu.au/>.
