ExpeER is a major European Infrastructure project (2010-2014) in the field of Ecosystem Research. ExpeER will, for the first time, federate existing national infrastructures, improve their research capacity whilst at the same time facilitating access to those key experimental and observational platforms as well as analytical and modelling facilities for the benefit of the international research community.

TRAINING COURSES: The training courses "TEsting and REfining SAmpling Protocols for Ecosystem Research" will be held in Netherlands the 26-30 of August 2013. More information.
INTERNATIONAL COURSES ON CLIMATE CHANGE: The courses "Ecological Consequences of Climate Change: Integrating Research Approaches" will be held from 30 September to 11 October 2013 in the Doñana National Park. More information
AGU CHAPMAN CONFERENCE The Chapman Conference on soil mediated drivers of coupled biogeochemical and hydrological processes across scales will run the 21-24 of October. More information here and on the website.
CALL FOR ACCESS: The call for proposals for accessing one or several of the 31 ExpeER infrastructures is open. Follow all TA visits on the facebook page of ExpeER.

AnaEE is part of the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures Roadmap (2010) as a new distributed EU infrastructure for ecosystem research. ExpeER forms the building blocks of the AnaEE distributed infrastructure by federating and structuring key existing experimental and observational infrastructures in ecosystem research in Europe. AnaEE will enable many of the key infrastructures involved in ExpeER to be further enhanced and upgraded complemented by the development of new sites and facilities so as to build an ambitious, state-of-the-art Ecosystem Research Infrastructure with expert services at a pan-European Level.
