Objectif

To ensure synergy between the European ecosystems research projects - to organize thematic meetings and workshops for the participants of ecosystems to improve interaction between projects
- to provide a forum for discussing ecological theory and experimental research in order to provide the scientific framework for future research and environmental monitoring activities
- to stimulate the development of environmental models - and in particular models suited to assist in the difficult question of generalising from limited experiments (scaling-up).

The research on global change in terrestrial ecosystems is organized as a special part of the Environment and Climate programme and is described in the TERI document. It is proposed to establish a concerted action creating a framework for promoting cooperation between the projects on terrestrial ecosystems funded by the programme.
It is the aim of the TERI coordination to ensure the optimal synergy between the terrestrial ecosystem research projects. This is organized by bringing the groups working on each theme together to discuss different approaches, to plan joint experiments and for utilising the transects in the most efficient way. Promoting the integration of results into models and scenarios of future changes is also part of the concerted action.
The TERI coordination contains an organizational structure at three levels that will keep the project coordinators informed about other proJects and show how far the TERI objectives are fulfilled.
The activities of the concerted action include contact and progress meetings on the projects level for each theme. Some council meetings are planned at selected sites for the development of methodology and joint experiments. TERI coordination is also planned to organize, towards the end of the project periods, an internal review process conducted by the council composed of all TERI project coordinators.
It is envisaged that TERI, in liaison with other global research programmes and with ENRICH, may function as a contact on global change studies with scientists from Eastern Europe and other parts of the world.
