Objectives in relation to the marine element of
the European Research Area (ERA)
  • Map European RTD programmes and infrastructures
  • Facilitate the networking of Marine RTD Funding
    Agencies
  • Contribute to the development of a European
    Marine Research Policy
  • Provide a basis for sharing available resources
  • Progress the reciprocal opening of member states
    Marine RTD Programmes

3
Background initiative ESF Marine Board position
paper Integrating Marine Science in Europe
Recommendations
  • The need to improve the use of existing research
    instruments at national and European level
  • The need to improve co-ordination of research
    infrastructure

4
Establishment of a CONSORTIUM of 15 core partners
from 13 EU countries and the ESF-MB IFREMER
overall coordinator
5 Work Packages
  • Of relevance to ship operators
  • WP- 1 Information exchange - 1.3 Mapping Marine

Problems to solve
Concern within European Governments about the
size of the European RV fleet
USA as an example but then solely UNOLS Fleet
28 versus 109?
What is needed
A balanced, more representative comparison
between the RV fleets, and an objective statement
on required ship-time capacity
