Research projects and funding institutions
The Intensive Monitoring of European Forest Ecosystems (Level II) is developed in the framework of the UNECE Programme ICP-Forests. The work is partially funded by the EU Member countries by means of the EC Forest Focus. The rest of the funding is provided by the National Focus Centres of the countries that participate in the Programme. In the case of Spain it is the SPAN-DGB.
On-going collaborations
Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Agrarias (INIA), Fundación CEAM (Valencia) and Cátedra de Botánica de la Escuela Universitaria de Ingeniería Técnica Forestal (Madrid).
