  2. ESONET NoE European Sea Observatory Network of Excellence • Contents • Budget • Scientific and technological topics • Eligible costs for DMs • Selection process • Proposal preparation • Conclusions

  3. ESONET NoE Total Budget over 4 Years Invitations: 1% Demonstration Missions 40 % : 2,7M€ Work Packages activities 34%: 2,4M€ Management cost: 7% Exchange of personnel 18%: 1,26M€

  4. ESONET NoE Demonstration Missions budget • - Total DMOs budget: 2.7 M€ • - 1st call: 1.8 M€ (3x 500 + 300 k€) • - remaining budget for DMOs: 0.9 € • 2 proposals 450 k€ each? (recommanded requested contribution) 2nd call: Opened from 28th sept. To 31st Oct. Information on Esonet web site and Esonews Emailing list

  5. ESONET NoE Demo Missions: Scientific topics Sédiments Sédiments Mantle Oceanic crust T.O.C. continental crust • Active sea floor processes:: • Earthquakes, submarine slides • Tsunamis, benthic storms • Turbidity currents • Hydrothermal vents, cold seeps • Pollutions, bio-diversity changes • Anthropologic impacts on deep ecosystems AND • Geohazards • Climate changes • Ecosystem life & evolution

  6. ESONET NoE Demo Missions: Scientific topics Water column processes

  7. ESONET NoE Demo Missions: Scientific and technological topics • 4 general scientific areas are presented with a specific attention on some topics. • To read carefully: slighly changed from past call • 4 technological areas • Idem be careful with data management.

  8. ESONET NoE Types of observatories

  9. Eligible costs for Esonet and for DMS • For Esonet (FP6 NoEs) -Equipment cost is not eligible -subcontracting cost is eligible but with important restrictions (see FP6 financial rules) • For DMs, 2nd call: • Equipment cost is not eligible • Subcontracting cost is not eligible for Dmo grant

  10. Eligible costs for Esonet DMs • Exemple of eligible costs • Personnel cost • Permanent + non permanent for FC and FCF partners • Non permanent for AC partners • Consumables + reconditionning of sensors (calibration, test, batteries, computers, small cables, etc…according to a limited amount *) • Travels and accommodations • Send of material on board (services …) * See rules of your institute to check what is consumable and what is equipment

  11. DMs selection process • Read carefully the call AND the guide for applicants • Send your proposal in pdf format at the good Email address (no to esonet-coordinator) (you can overwrite your proposal with a new one if needed) • Verify that you receive an acknowledgement by 2 days. • Be strict with the deadline

  12. DMs selection process • After the deadline, the proposals will be sent to at least 3 external referees (non european) • Then referee’s report will be synthethized by Esonet chair persons of the 3 councils • Data management council • Scientific council • Test and operation council • Discussion and negotiation in SC meeting • Final selection published • Signature of grant Agreements including financial table and implementation plan.

  13. Proposal preparation • 2 Forms: FORM A + FORM B = one pdf file < 10 MB Form A= administrative form Form B= more a template including financial statements • 1 leader/coordinator/contact person per proposal • Project structured in WPs means that you can then decide of several leaders per topic, for instance one for Oceano, one for Geophysic, 1 for data management, 1 for operation at Sea, 1 for ….

  14. Proposal preparation • Important points to address • Integrating activities: European level integrating at least 3 Esonet partners (a strict minimum) • New concept/technology • Water column + seafloor • Structure of the project (who’s doing what?) • Agenda • Request of shiping time? • Financial scheme splitted in categories (personnel cost, travel and accommodation, subcontracting, equipement, others) and per partner + total. Give information on other financial support. NB: even if equipment is not eligible for reimbursement you can show that you will support this cost and that the grant will not be used for its refund

  15. The end Acknowledgement: Esonet NoE members thank the EC for the FP6 contract # 36851 signed in Mar. 2007, as part of the EC Global Change and Ecosystems priority.
