  • Hintereisferner (glacier) is located at the end of Rofen valley between 2500 and 3750 m altitude. The glacier is situated in Naturpark Ötztal, and one of the glaciers with longest records of glacier mass balance worldwide. In addition to that, a number of hydrological and meteorological observations complete the data base. Currently, 3 weather stations and 6 rain gauges provide data. Topographic and land cover data are available, in the recent years on an annual base. The area is used for Alpine tourism (but without a hut in the basin), for limited hunting and growing a few sheeps.

  • Mt. Jirisan is located in the southern region of South Korea. It is largest in its size, second highest and dedicated as the first national park in South Korea. It is at the southern end of Backdudaegan mountain ranges. Mt. Jirisan site in Gurae County is located in the very vicinity of the national park and is the second KLTER(Korea Long Term Ecological Research) station by Ministry of Environment and National Institute of Ecology. The site suffered natural forest fire in 1999 and 2000 in a row that combusted vegetation about 13 and 7 hectares respectively. Since that time, some tree species were planted in some of the area. In 2010, the county designated the forest area of 155 ha including the KLTER site as the Gurae Ecoforest and has managed the forest for ecological stability. The area is composed of a variety of ecosystems like secondary pine forest as major vegetation, naturally rehabilitated area, thinning area, reforested area.

  • O Peld Sitio 17 conta com uma boa infraestrutura, embora haja necessidade de ampliação da mesma para o amplo aproveitamento da estrutura montada. No local contamos com um bom apoio do Parna Serra do Cipó, que possui uma área construída de mais 2000m2. O parque conta atualmente com duas casas que tem sido utilizadas com certa freqüência por pesquisadores. Estas estão localizadas a 800 e 1500 metros de altitude facilitando os estudos no gradiente altitudinal. Não há problemas com água, eletricidade e telefone, embora o acesso a internet seja ainda precário. Atualmente, há necessidade de maior entendimento por parte daquela instituição para com a pesquisa, uma das funções que foram o pilar para a criação das UCs no país. Esperamos poder ampliar esta colaboração através de reunião com os dirigentes locais e federais pois tanto o ICMBio quanto pesquisadores se beneficiam com a pesquisa. Embora o ICMBio possua veículos os mesmo não podem ser utilizados por terceiros, o que representa um enorme problema. Todavia, neste edital foi propiciado a aquisição de veículos o que é importante para este e qualquer outro projeto, visto que as Universidades e institutos geralmente não fornecem este apoio sem o pagamento de diárias para os motoristas (além do número limitado de veículos e motoristas). Na e APA Morro da Pedreira há mais de 100 pousadas e três bons hotéis. A região dista apenas 60 km do Aeroporto Internacional de Confins e 100 km de B. Horizonte. A realização do projeto na fase I foi, por outro lado, garantida através da parceria estabelecida com os moradores do local, os quais estão acostumados com a figura do cientista. Assim, contamos com o apoio total de pousadas (Serra Morena, Pouso do Elefante), empresas (Cedro) e ainda da Reserva Vellozia, a qual forneceu apoio logístico, alojamento e laboratório para o desenvolvimento das atividades o projeto.

  • Hochjochferner (glacier) is located between the Schnalstal and the Venter valley. It extends over an area of 612 ha from the Grawandspitze (3.251 m) and the Fineilspitze (3.514 m) to the Hochjoch (2.750 m) and into the Rofen valley. The western part of the glacier was used as year-round ski area until 2012.

  • Shirahama is situated in the southern part of the west coast of the Kii Peninsula, and in the bay mouth of Tanaba Bay, which is situated at the point where Kii Strait meets the Pacific Ocean. The habitat around Shirahama includes rocky shore, sandy beach and mud flat.

  • FKL is the atmospheric research station of the Environmental Chemical Processes Laboratory, Department of Chemistry, University of Crete. The station is situated at Finokalia (35°20'N, 25°40'E ) on the north coast of Crete. The nearest large urban centre is Heraklion with 150000 inhabitants located 70 km west of Finokalia. The station is located at the top of a hilly elevation (250 m asl) facing the sea within a sector 270° to 90°. No significant human activities occur at a distance shorter than 15 km within the above mentioned sector. The area is characterized by the existence of two well-distinguished seasons: the dry season (from April to September) mainly characterised by increased levels of pollution and biomass burning events and the wet season (from October to April). Important transport from Sahara (S/SW winds; occurrence up to 20%) takes place during the intermediate season (spring and autumn).

  • The Navarino Environmental Observatory (NEO) is a pioneer in Greece as an international partnership, between the academic community and the private sector in the field of research and education on climate change and the environment in the Mediterranean region. (www.navarinoneo.gr). NEO started its full operation in 2010 as a collaboration between Stockholm University, the Biomedical Research Foundation of the Academy of Athens (BRFAA) and TEMES S.A.. The unique climate and landscape of the Messinia region makes it an ideal location for research on climate and environmental change. NEO has already become an international hub for frontline research and education, where scientists from all over the world meet to exchange knowledge and ideas.
