18 Outline A glimpse into the future: Horizon 2020 Opportunities in next FP7-Space call: main topics open International cooperation Examples of cooperation with China Conclusions 18

19 International cooperation Participation is encouraged to researchers and research organisations from all third countries The active participation of third country partners, e.g. from China represents an added value Financing is possible,, if the contribution is essential for reaching the objective of the project This year, a specific topic encouraging cooperation with China (air quality) 19

20 Outline A glimpse into the future: Horizon 2020 Opportunities in next FP7-Space call: main topics open International cooperation Examples of cooperation with China Conclusions 20

21 Space research interests in China One major area of interest is air-quality monitoring China will establish an integrated nationwide ambient air quality monitoring network in 2015 integrating various monitoring networks into one platform: - Atmospheric background - Rural air quality - Acid deposition - Sand and dust storms - Greenhouse gases 21

22 EU Space research projects with Chinese partners Currently 4 projects funded under Space theme in area of atmosphere/climate: - AMFIC (completed) - DRAGONESS (completed) - CARBONES (ongoing) - CORE-CLIMAX CLIMAX (recently selected) But also 1 project relating to cubesats: - QB50 (ongoing) 22

23 AMFIC Title: Air Quality Monitoring and Forecasting in China EU contribution: 1.1 million Chinese participants: - IAP Institute of Atmospheric Physics - National Satellite Meteorological Center - NSMC 23

24 DRAGONESS Title: Dragon in support of harmonising European and Chinese marine monitoring for environment and security system EU contribution: 0.5 million Chinese partners: Ocean University of China, Coordinator - The Institute of Atmospheric Physics (IAP), the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) - National Marine Environmental Forecasting Center - National Satellite Ocean Application Service - Nansen-Zhu international research center - Second Institute of Oceanography State Oceanic Administration - Beijing Normal University - Ministry of Science and Technology 24

25 CARBONES Title: 30-year re-analysis of carbon fluxes and pools over Europe and the Globe EU contribution: 2.6 million Chinese partner: Beijing University 25
