A project proposal for funding LTER-Europe biodiversity activities under Reg. (EC) n. 614/2007 LIFE+:Biodiversity pattern assessment across Europe: the LTER network as an integrated system for biodiversity monitoring(DivEurope)LTERItaly

DivEurope MAIN OBJECTIVESProvide data and information on long-term trends of terrestrial, freshwater and marine biodiversity change at European scale, with reference to habitat types (including Natura 2000 network) and environmental gradients.Select, on the basis of long-term data and feasibility test in the field, a set of key indicators sensitive to defined major pressures on biodiversity.Develop and setting-up in the field an integrated and permanent system to detect and evaluate changes in biodiversity patterns across Europe, using harmonized methods.Provide and develop an integrated data and information management system on status and trend of biodiversity.

An integrated system to detect and evaluate changes in biodiversity in Europe will be proposed. The system will include 60-80 LTER sites for cause-effect studies, on the basis of available facilities of the 12-14 participant EU Member States.Harmonized methods for assessing key indicators of biodiversity at European scale will be proposed: a Manual, including a sub-manual for each key-parameter will be produced.Data and information on status and trend of biodiversity at EU scale and at community level, as soon as at landscape level, will be analyzed and reported. Particular emphasis will be dedicated to habitats included into Natura 2000 network.
