LifeWatch ERIC is the e-Science European infrastructure for biodiversity & ecosystem research, investing in its three essential components: open access data, reproducible analytics and mobilised communities. It equips scientists with distributed computational and storage capacity, tools and web-services for data integration and interoperability, as well as with Virtual Research Environments. This makes it possible to test scenarios of change in biodiversity, ecosystems and their services, and to formulate nature-based solutions which are made available to decision makers and citizens. In addition, LifeWatch ERIC provides training for a range of users, ensuring access to all the resources available within the infrastructure.
