The main objective of the project is to complement the experimental, analytical and observational research infrastructure of CzeCOS with state-of-the-art instrumentation and software equipment that will enable the study of key ecosystem processes affected by global change. These processes will be studied at different hierarchical levels, which will ensure a detailed understanding of the mechanisms of retroactive regulation between processes and environments, refine the estimation of the impacts of global change and contribute to the design of new adaptation measures. a.
