This scheme aims to promote international scientific exchange by supporting both incoming and outgoing mobility of researchers. Its goal is to encourage the sharing of data, tools, and methods, and to strengthen scientific and technical skills related to one of the four thematic pillars of the FairCarboN PEPR.
The FairCarboN research axes
- Axe 1 – Land–coast–atmosphere continuum
- Axe 2 – Coupling of biogeochemical cycles
- Axe 3 – Production and use of plant biomass
- Axe 4 – Economic and social issues, drivers and impacts of change
