1 State of the art and perspectives of ICOS ERIC Werner L. Kutsch, Director General

2 Current status of ICOS: 11 participating countries, > 100 stations and VOS lines, 2016 fully operational

3 ESFRI ROADMAP 2016 ICOS is a landmark!

4 ICOS will have four main activity fields External activities Further development of a global GHG observation system Consolidation of the ESFRI landscape (Interoperability with other ESFRIs ) Time (urgency) Internal Development Station labelling, data life cycle, license, enhanced products, administrative consolidation Technical developments, improved network design, enhanced number of member countries.

7 Impact

8 WP1: Increasing the impact of ICOS Analysis of requirements and possible impact of developing ICOS as European pillar of a global in-situ system resulting from COP 21 Developing ICOS RI readiness to provide information on fossil fuel emissions (UHEI, ) Developing the ICOS Flask sampling strategy (UHEI, MPI-BGC, ) Developing ICOS RI readiness to provide information on ecosystem river stream estuary ocean carbon transport and GHG fluxes Enhancing the bridge between ICOS RI and satellite observations (UBremen, )

9 WP2: Enhancing ICOS membership and sustainability Building partnership with countries Support in building national network and training for managers in stakeholder liaison and resource acquisition Training workshops for scientists in candidate countries

10 WP3: Technical developments Exploration to apply new technologies for vertical profiles (GUF, UBremen, ) Improving atmosphere measurements on voluntary observing ships (IOW, GEOMAR, MPI-BGC, ) Moving towards an autonomous system to measure ocean surface carbon uptake in regions and seasons where merchant vessel- based systems are not suitable Making non-co 2 - GHG eddy covariance measurements operational (TIAK, ) Developing ICOS Ecosystem network to nodes for general Ecosystem observations

11 WP4: Improving data Developing metadata for ICOS RI (MPI-BGC,...) Making legacy data available (TIAK, UHEI, ) WP5: Towards a Global Carbon and GHG observation system Building stable cooperation with other regional observational networks WP6: Project Management

19 Current status and risks of data lifecycle Fully ramped up in terms of personnel Status of personnel not fully reported

20 Current status and risks of data lifecycle Data streams are currently set up between stations and TCs (part of Step 2 of station labelling) and between TCs and CP. In parallel, the CP is setting up metadata ontologies and prepares persistent identifier and landing page. Goal is to become operational by end of the year. Risks may occur from limited capacities of TC to serve demands from sites during Step 2 and in the same time to connect to the CP. Minor risk may come from the fact that the e- infrastructure of ICOS is very distributed and difficult to connect (e.g. the firewall of a nuclear organisation has different requirements than that of a University)
