    {"projectrec":{"ProID":5486,"StandardTitle":"Aqua Research Infrastructures for the health and protection of our unique, oceans, seas and freshwater ecosystems","OrigTitle":null,"Acronym":"AQUARIUS","AbstractEnglish":"<p>AQUARIUS will provide a highly comprehensive suite of integrated research infrastructures appropriate to addressing significant challenges for the long-term sustainability of our unique oceans, seas and freshwater ecosystems. For the&nbsp;<br>first time, diverse research infrastructures will be combined to facilitate the work of researchers and key stakeholders focused on challenges and opportunities for both marine and freshwater systems. An impressive range of 57 research infrastructure services will be made available to include research vessels, mobile marine observation platforms, aircraft, drones, satellite, sensors, fixed freshwater and marine observatories and test sites, experimental facilities, and sophisticated data infrastructures. AQUARIUS will support the development phase of the EU Mission to Restore our Ocean and waters by 2030, the Sustainable Blue Economy Partnership, the European Green Deal, and international climate initiatives. It will also be an essential component in achieving the European Digital Twin of the Ocean and the UN Decade for Ocean Sciences. The needs of researchers will be met through a robust and transparent system of transnational access funding Calls, facilitated by centralised user-friendly access portal. The Call programme will be informed through stakeholder engagement and brokerage events. Projects to be selected for Access must convincingly integrate multiple infrastructures and contribute to the core policy objectives of Mission Ocean, that is, to protect and&nbsp;<br>restore marine and freshwater ecosystems and biodiversity; to prevent and eliminate pollution of our oceans, seas and waters; and to ensure a sustainable, carbon-neutral and circular blue economy. A thematic and geographic focus will be the hallmark of the proposed transnational Calls, aligning with the Lighthouse Regions, that is, the Baltic and the North Sea Basins, Black Sea, Atlantic/Arctic, and Mediterranean Sea along with their associated rivers.</p>","AbstractOtherLang":"<p>AQUARIUS zal een zeer uitgebreide reeks geïntegreerde onderzoeksinfrastructuren aanbieden die geschikt zijn voor het aanpakken van belangrijke uitdagingen voor de duurzaamheid op lange termijn van onze unieke oceanen, zeeën en zoetwaterecosystemen. &nbsp;Voor het eerst wordenverschillende onderzoeksinfrastructuren gecombineerd om het werk van onderzoekers en belangrijke belanghebbenden te vergemakkelijken. Infrastructuur diensten zullen worden aangeboden, gericht op uitdagingen en kansen voor zowel mariene als zoetwatersystemen. &nbsp;Een indrukwekkende reeks van 57 onderzoeks infrastructuurdiensten worden beschikbaar worden gesteld, waaronder onderzoeksschepen, mobiele mariene observatieplatforms, vliegtuigen, drones, satellieten, sensoren, observatoria en testlocaties, experimentele faciliteiten en geavanceerde data-infrastructuren. AQUARIUS zal steun verlenen aan de ontwikkelingsfase van de EU-missie om onze oceanen en wateren tegen 2030 te herstellen, aan het partnerschap voor duurzame blauwe economie, de Europese Green Deal en internationale klimaatinitiatieven. Het zal ook een essentieel onderdeel zijn van de verwezenlijking van de Europese digitale twin van de oceaan en het het VN-decennium voor oceaanwetenschappen. Aan de behoeften van onderzoekers zal worden voldaan via een robuust en transparant systeem van oproepen tot financiering van transnationale toegang, gefaciliteerd door een gecentraliseerd gebruikersvriendelijk toegangsportaal. De oproep tot transnationale toegang zal kenbaar worden gemaakt via informatierondes van de belanghebbenden en een brookerage evenement. &nbsp;Projecten die geselecteerd worden voor moeten op overtuigende wijze meerdere infrastructuren integreren en bijdragen aan de kernbeleidsdoelstellingen van Mission Ocean, namelijk het beschermen en het beschermen en herstellen van mariene en zoetwaterecosystemen en biodiversiteit; het voorkomen en uitbannen van vervuiling van onze oceanen, zeeën en wateren; en te zorgen voor een duurzame, koolstofneutrale en circulaire blauwe economie. Het kenmerk van de voorgestelde transnationale oproepen is een thematische en geografische focus, die is afgestemd op de Baltische en het Noordzeegebied, de Zwarte Zee, de Atlantische Oceaan/Arctische Oceaan en de Middellandse Zee met de bijbehorende rivieren.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;</p>","DateLastModified":{"date":"2025-07-03 16:27:46.265653","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"ParentProID":null,"BeginYear":2024,"EndYear":2027,"BMonth":3,"EMonth":2,"BeginMonth":"March","EndMonth":"February","OrigTitleLangCode":null,"OrigTitleLangID":null,"OrigTitleLangNL":null,"OrigTitleLang":null,"OtherAbstractLangCode":"nl","OtherAbstractLangID":41,"OtherAbstractLang":"Dutch","OtherAbstractLangNL":"Nederlands","Progress":"In Progress","ProgressNL":"Gestart","PublicFlag":1,"CheckedFlag":1,"ND":"2025-04-22","UD":"2025-07-02","DMPFlag":1,"Budget":14499999,"BudgetCurrency":null,"DOI":"10.3030/101130915"},"parent":null,"persons":null,"projects":null,"events":null,"datasets":null,"institutes":[{"instituterec":{"Acronym":"VLIZ","ProPartID":19679,"PublicFlag":1,"OrigNameLangCode":"en","OrigNameLangID":15,"FullOrigName":"Flanders Marine Institute","Line1":"VLIZ – InnovOcean Campus","Line2":"Jacobsenstraat 1","Line3":"8400 Oostende","Line4":null,"InsID":36,"FullStandardName":"Vlaams Instituut voor de Zee","Role":"Co-ordinator","RoleID":7,"EncAddress":"VLIZ – InnovOcean Campus, Jacobsenstraat 1, 8400 Oostende, Belgium"},"parent":null,"institutes":null,"references":null,"conferences":null,"datasets":null,"persons":[{"Surname":"Cattrijsse","Firstname":"André","Initials":"A.","LeaderFlag":0,"PersID":128,"Role":"Principal Investigator","RoleID":59,"PastInstitute":0,"BeginDay":1,"BeginMonth":8,"BeginYear":2000,"EndDay":null,"EndMonth":null,"EndYear":null},{"Surname":"Boone","Firstname":"Wieter","Initials":"W.","LeaderFlag":0,"PersID":36009,"Role":null,"RoleID":null,"PastInstitute":0,"BeginDay":1,"BeginMonth":3,"BeginYear":2019,"EndDay":null,"EndMonth":null,"EndYear":null},{"Surname":"Schepers","Firstname":"Lennert","Initials":"L.","LeaderFlag":0,"PersID":32873,"Role":null,"RoleID":null,"PastInstitute":1,"BeginDay":15,"BeginMonth":1,"BeginYear":2018,"EndDay":5,"EndMonth":1,"EndYear":2025},{"Surname":"Guevara","Firstname":"Michelle","Initials":"M.","LeaderFlag":0,"PersID":45954,"Role":null,"RoleID":null,"PastInstitute":0,"BeginDay":15,"BeginMonth":7,"BeginYear":2025,"EndDay":null,"EndMonth":null,"EndYear":null}],"pastpers":null,"subpers":null,"projects":null,"urls":null,"pictures":null,"published":null,"affrefs":null,"collections":null,"thesterms":null,"taxterms":null,"geoterms":null,"thestermsFRIS":null,"nXtins":null,"previns":null,"spcols":null,"resmessage":"no id specified","complete":0,"participantrec":null,"peerrevs":null,"urlmaps":null},{"instituterec":{"Acronym":"MI","ProPartID":19680,"PublicFlag":1,"OrigNameLangCode":null,"OrigNameLangID":null,"FullOrigName":null,"Line1":"Marine Institute Headquarters","Line2":"Rinville, Oranmore, Co.
