The 1st workshop of the EU Horizon 2020 project GLOBIS-B (“GLOBal Infrastructures for Supporting Biodiversity research”) took place in Leipzig from February 29 until March 2.
GLOBIS-B, coordinated by the University of Amsterdam as part of LifeWatch, supports research infrastructures active in biodiversity and ecosystems research from Australia, Brazil, China, Europe, South Africa and the USA.
More specifically, the project is focused on potential services supporting research on Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs).
