Task 1c) – Exchange of Personnel Activity 1c1: 2 nd Call for Exchange of Personnel We issued the 2 nd formal Call for Exchange of Personnel in April 2009, with a deadline set for 15 May 2009. We received eight projects, for a total requested amount of 66 200 €. Based on our recommendations, the ESONET Steering Committee suggested some revisions for certain projects (applicants for three projects were asked to join forces and submit a coordinated proposal). Following this revision, four projects were funded, for a total of 33 500 €, and involving personnel from eight ESONET partner institutions. The Table below gives some details on these funded projects. April 2010 20

As a result, we were a bit late with the submission of D54 (due in November 2009) which was to report on the projects funded through both the 1 st and the 2 nd Calls for Exchange of Personnel. We submitted this report in March 2010. Activity 1c2: 3 rd Call for Exchange of Personnel Finally, we recently (January 25) issued the 3 rd and last Call for Exchange of Personnel, with a deadline set for 13 February 2010. We received six proposals for a total of 89340 €. These proposals were ranked and decision was made on their funding at the ESONET Steering Committee meeting of 26 March 2010. Person in charge: Mathilde Cannat Involved partners: IPGP, ITU, CEREGE, DEU, IMST, IFREMER, UPC, SEND, CSIC, IMI Task 1d) – Plan and implement the Virtual Institute VISO The objective of the VISO workshop was to provide the planned large-scale marine infrastructure, partner countries and interested organizations, such as fisheries and the petrol & gas industry, with strategies for ensuring the durability of observatory data. Workshop preparation was coordinated by UiT and the event took place in Tromso, Norway on 11-12 June 2009. Activity 1d2: Workshop conclusions The workshop was attended by 80 scientists and engineers from around the world and from major marine research stakeholders, including industrial sectors that are directly or indirectly related to deep-sea observatories. The group discussions highlighted the urgent need to understand the effect of climate change on the ocean, because the ocean is becoming more acidic, minimum oxygen zones are expanding and anoxic dead zones are appearing in formerly rich fishing places. All of these changes threaten ocean health and the ability of the earth to support human life. The lack of deep-sea observations needs to be counteracted, especially for decision-makers trying to find better supports to communicate to end-users. The education issue is also essential, with an increasing need for training specialists with environmental backgrounds. The report following the workshop (D53) was submitted in November 2009 (month 33). The objective of VISO is to insure continued scientific planning and networking between the EMSO observatory nodes after the end of the ESONET NoE. VISO will also be a useful structure for interacting with industry through the ESONET-EMSO community, and will link April 2010 21
