The Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) of UNESCO released the Integrated Ocean Carbon Research (IOC‐R) Report, the most comprehensive assessment to date of the uncertainties shaping the ocean carbon sink. 

The report urges to close key knowledge gaps in understanding the ocean carbon sink to support stronger climate action. ICOS contributed to the report along with 72 other authors.

Duane Brooks has been recently appointed “Project Controller” at ICOS.

His day-to-day involves managing project invoicing, participating in the VAT exemption, and overseeing EU financial reporting. 

A bilateral project in the framework of the Swiss-Czech Cooperation Programme was awarded to two ICOS national networks: ICOS Czech Republic and ICOS Switzerland. 

The INETFLUX (Innovative technologies cross scales to disentangle carbon dioxide and evapotranspiration fluxes of forests) project brings together one Czech institution and two Swiss research institutions which all are part of ICOS.

• INETFLUX has a vacant postdoctoral position on partitioning forest CO2 and water vapour fluxes. Read more and apply here.
