2nd day: Workshop on RI strategies and

Nordic policies

21.8.2015 4

21.8.2015

Aim

Science communities: • ATM relatively ok • Marine – work has started • Ecosystem part still fragmented

Funding bodies: • Close collaboration but

still independent and unsynchronous processes

21.8.2015 6

Challenge

Who is funding process studies (observation and experiments) in the future? • Strategic research is increasing (solution-based, demand-driven)

• Nationally low suggest rates for basic research

• Nordic, European and international funding mainly strategic funding

• RI funding sustains the data and core facilities – what about the

researchers?

• Argumentation: scientific excellence – societal challenges and demands

21.8.2015 7

Changing research funding

to build and ensure deeper Nordic collaboration and participation in the

individual RI activities (Nordic nodes for ICOS, ACTRIS, ANAEE, SIOS)

to enhance the cross-RI collaboration in topics related to data, access,

services, management, and policies at the Nordic level

to strengthen the Nordic participation and position in ESFRI RI projects

to strengthen a coordinated communication with relevant Nordic and

national agencies and ministries for a two-way communication on

possibilities, political and societal needs.

usage and access

management

Sustainability of the RIs

Collaborative work in Nordic RI

nodes

Long-term visions

Provision of RI services

Training

RI policies and strategies

International RI collaboration

RI design and planning

Sensor and technology development Data management and data interoperability Data and RI cross-usage and access management

21.8.2015 10

Topics

RI design and planning • RIs are distributed > risk of geographical and/or operational fragmentation • co-location options > scientific and economic advantages + optimizing of technological

implementation of the RIs Sensor and technology development • Harsh Nordic climate conditions > specific requirements for the sensor and instrument

performance • collaboration on technological development > ensures high-quality measurements +

knowledge transfer and take up of the new sensors, instruments, techniques/methods from neighbouring RIs

• development of joint measurement and analyse protocols > critical mass for cooperation with industries, including SME > increases the innovation potential

21.8.2015 11

Topics

Data management and data interoperability • Data is scattered > need for accelerate the cross-use of the RI data • Need work on harmonizing and integrating policies for data and data lifecycle, creating

efficient solutions for data sharing, architecture and long-term storage • Starts from exploring synergies and complementarities, analysing different workflows,

existing policies and open data standards (Reference model, NCoE eSTICC) Data and RI cross-usage and access management • Resources are scarce > common use of facilities, planning of joint Nordic experiments and

research actions will increase the cost-efficiency of the RIs • Transnational access across the participating RIs + best practices on distributed and virtual

access management

21.8.2015 12

Topics (2)

Provision of RI services • RIs provides services (scientific, private and public sector) > best practices and knowledge

across the RIs • proof of concepts, prototyping and deployment of data services, development of the software

applications,….

Training • More cross-disciplinary studies > coordination of training activities (students, researchers,

staff) • long experience within the RIs on organising training/user/science workshops/courses that

can be developed into a common program.

21.8.2015 13

Topics (3)

RI policies and strategies • Landscape is changing > new strategies • Identification of common priorities, interests and potentials > formulation of strategies for

coordinated actions at the Nordic level. • Common strategy between the RIs and national/Nordic agencies/authorities will strengthen

the position of Nordic actors in the European RI arena > accelerate the RI implementation at national level.

International RI collaboration • Nordic position in international RI arenas (ESFRI working groups, Research Data Alliance,

Copernicus, GEO-GEOSS, SAON, PEEX, SCAR and on EC-funded RI projects ENVRI, COOPEUS

Our objectives for strategies

8 - 9 December, 2014 Nordic RI Kick-off Meeting, Helsinki, Finland

The Nordic Dimension

• Besides the coordinator/host three Nordic countries partners in SIOS-PP (Finland, Sweden, Denmark)

• Denmark will not participate in the SIOS infrastructure, but interested in and (during SIOS-PP) responsible for cooperation agreements with other Nordic RI initiatives (INTERACT, GEM and other research stations in Fennoscandia and on Greenland)

• LoC from Finland, with explicit intention to increase activities on Svalbard (implementation of RS activities, aerosol and flux observations)

• Sweden still in «thinking box», but very active in Ny-Ålesund (Zeppelin Observatory), recently establishment of EC carbon flux site in Adventdalen, potential in marine research

• Coordinated efforts from FI and SE to link SIOS and ICOS

• Strong connections via database activities, e.g., NILU’s EBAS, NorDataNet initiative
