This scheme aims to promote international exchanges by supporting both incoming and outgoing mobility for scientists, with the objective of sharing data, tools and methods, or strengthening scientific and technical skills related to one of the four thematic axes of the FairCarboN PEPR.
The FairCarboN PEPR research axes:
Axis 1 – Continuum from land to coastal zone to atmosphere
Axis 2 – Coupling of biogeochemical cycles
Axis 3 – Production and use of plant biomass
Axis 4 – Economic and social questions: drivers and impacts of change
