  3. CLARIS NCT1Summary of CLARIS 1st year activitiesJean-Philippe Boulanger (CNRS) and Carlos Ereño (UBA) • CLARIS Consortium • CLARIS Budget • Web site • Newsletter • Dissemination activities • Satisfaction survey (Carlos Ereño) • Meeting agenda

  4. CLARIS Consortium • Due to administrative reasons, University of Sao Paulo has been retrieved from the CLARIS project • A new version of the consortium agreement without USP has been sent to the partners • A new Description of Work (DoW) is now available on the CLARIS web site • Two institutes have asked to integrate the CLARIS project: • INTA (Instituto Nacional de Tecnicas Agropecuarias, Argentina)-WP4.1-Unanimous agreement • FUNCEME (Fundaçao Cearense de Meteorlogia e Recursos hidricos, Brazil)-WP4.2, WP3.2-Vote postponed to Saturday morning during the Consortium meeting

  5. CLARIS Budget • EC funds sent to CNRS received at CNRS in December • CNRS transferred funds in March • Level of expenses at June, 30th = less than 50% • Financial reports must be sent to CNRS by 11th of July • Both the late transfer of funds and the organization of the meeting in July (2nd year) explain the low rate of use of funds (50%), it is asked to the EC not to reduce the 2nd year CLARIS budget. Such a reduction would compromise the ability of the project partners to catch up with CLARIS initial calendar. • Georgios Amanatidis suggested that when we reach the 70% level, we inform the EC in order to initiate the the transfer of 2nd funding. Such a level may be reached in late July (after the present meeting).

  6. CLARIS Web SitePaula Richter • A new version of the CLARIS web site has been designed by Paula Richter and is now located at: http://www.claris-eu.org

  18. CLARIS Satisfaction Survey Comments Web site • I have not visited the web site Newsletter • No Neswletter has been published yet • I think that the newsletter may be a little bit too long and too "technical" to really increase CLARIS visibility. • It is too soon to really assess if it could be useful for my own activities in the project, however, it might not be the prior objective of the newsletter Data server • I did not have to use it yet • DODS is useful to my activities. I am working with IOCC data

  19. CLARIS Satisfaction Survey Conclusions • Only eleven partners replied to the survey. GREAT THANKS! • Useful comments to take some actions: • Newsletter • Inter-WP meetings in Bologna • Copies of the results of the survey are available for all participants.
