New policy-relevant challenges are posed to research infrastructures to support policy decisions from the Paris Agreement on Climate, in the fields of :

1) monitoring of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions,
2) monitoring changes in carbon storage and greenhouse gas emissions over land and oceans,
3) assessing the resilience of marine and terrestrial ecosystems to climate change and adaptation strategies,
4) understanding the impacts of climate change on biodiversity, water resources, air pollution

The Research Infrastructures and the Paris Agreement on Climate Conference will review these global challenges and the needs for international collaboration between research infrastructures in different regions, efficient data sharing and cooperation mechanisms.

Dates: 20-21 November 2018

Venue: German Marine Research Consortium
Boulevard St. Michel 80 (Brussels, Belgium)
