Marcos Llope | Instituto Espanol de Oceanografia | Spain |
We are looking for partners to apply for a project to Theme #2. Specifically, we would like to develop a project on estuarine biodiversity and services. We'd like to look into the effects that 'green and blue infrastructures (GBIs)'have on biodiversity, functioning and provision of services (T2.1 of them #2 call), the effects of gobal change on the latter (T2.2) and the interactions with 'grey' infrastructurs (T2.3). Ideally, we would like to team up with research groups from other European countries focused on estuarine ecology and management so that they match and complement our expertise on the Guadalquivir Estuary (south Spain). |
