What long-term funding frameworks could sustain the monitoring infrastructure
needed to detect ecosystem-scale changes over decadal timeframes?
Background
Effective management of Scotland's marine and freshwater environments requires robust,
timely, and accessible data and evidence. This research area focuses on developing and
implementing new approaches for monitoring, data collection, analysis, and curation and
sharing to support evidence-based decision-making and adaptive management.
