ECOTIP funded by EU Horizon 2020 to investigate ecosystem tipping points in the Arctic

(GRID-Arendal) The ambitious new ECOTIP initiative has received € 6.36 million from the European Union's Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme to study ecosystem tipping cascades in the Arctic marine environment. A multidisciplinary group of scientists from 10 countries will advance understanding of the impacts of climate change on Arctic biodiversity and the cascading effects that biodiversity change can have on marine ecosystems, the climate services they provide, and the human communities that depend on them.
