Geosphere - eLTER Standard Observation Protocols (SPF Webinar)

eLTER ESFRI process is advancing, and sites and platforms need to prepare for measuring agreed Standard Observations. The work on protocols has been ongoing and this series of Sites and Platforms Forum (SPF) webinars will provide an overview on them. There will be a specific session for each sphere (Atmos-, Bio-, Hydro-, Geo-, Anthropo-) presenting the respective protocols, providing examples and experience from the sites and reserving time for questions.

The webinars are open to anyone, but require registration: https://elomake.helsinki.fi/lomakkeet/138965/lomake.html
