Abstract:
I-AMICA (Infrastruttura di Alta tecnologia per il Monitoraggio Climatico Ambientale - Infrastructure of High Technology for
Environmental and Climate Monitoring) is a three years challenging project, co-funded by Italian National Operative Program (PON)
and European Regional Development Fund. A lot of effort distinguish the project to strengthen the environmental monitoring in
Italian South Mediterranean with the aim to support the integration among research, high training, and innovation. A special issue is
also to be proactive in synergies among public and private research organizations. The activities are focused on actions addressed to
strengthen the observational infrastructures for atmosphere, forest and coastal areas in the regions of Southern Italy, whose economic
growth and social well-being are strongly related to the environment quality. In such Convergence Regions (Campania, Apulia,
Calabria and Sicily), instrumental networks (e.g. advanced sensors, software tools, integrated platforms and mobile laboratory and
stations) dedicated to the environmental and climatic monitoring in the Mediterranean area, in terms of air quality, forest and
agriculture, coastal marine ecosystems will be promoted and developed.
In order to raise the national and international competitive capacity, four "pillar" activities are aimed to (1) strengthen observing infrastructures for climate and environment and data processing systems, (2) promote innovation, technological development and industrial transfer, (3) integrate these observational activities into international programs (i.e. GAW-WMO, ACTRIS, EARLINET, GMOS, ICOS, FLUXNET, SHARE, NEXT DATA) that will allow I-AMICA to effectively be integrated with important networks.
Finally, (4) through the implementation of observations, networking, technological applications and territorial services in the Convergence Regions, I-AMICA provides an important support to the local and regional communities.
