2. SCIENCE PLAN
 
It was addressed that the PEEX Science Plan (SP) is a White paper / a Background document needed for
writing the PEEX research funding applications, for the initiation of new PEEX projects, for the
infrastructure fundraising and for establishing PEEX relevant education activities. PEEX SP is identifying the
PEEX initiative at the large scale: (i) large scale research questions and (ii) the key topics relevant to Arctic
boreal regions (see presentation by Lappalainen).
Project Office will edit the final version of the Science Plan including the remarks and comments of the
Working groups:
• WG-2: Satellite WG listed the satellite data relevant / available needed to meet the PEEX research
questions.
• WG-4: Marine part; Timo Vihma (FMI) and Dmitry Pozdnyakov will provide small new text chapters
especially on marine observations and ecosystems next week.
• WG-5: addressed three topics here: (i) the need of clear strategy of future socio-economic
research (objectives, theoretical basis for interdisciplinary research and well defined methods) and
(ii) operationalization of key concepts for interdisciplinary research (society, social systems,
environment etc.) and (iii) stronger coordination of the Social Section of PEEX.
• WGs 1 and 3 focused on the implementation plan of the PEEX observation network and the
modelling platform.
 
The final version will be printed in June 2014 and after that will follow the English to Russian / Chinese
translations. The translated SPs will be published in autumn 2014.
 
3. INFRA IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
 
The main components (in-situ; modelling platform, satellites) of the Infra Implementation Plan outline (v
0.1) was introduced by Petäjä, Baklanov and de Leeuw. Presentations on the observational activities
relevant to PEEX were given by Arshinov, Makshtas, Kujansuu and Zaitseva.
 
WG-1 in-situ addressed: Updated station descriptions (PEEX Stations Catalogue) for existing in-situ
stations is the first step towards coordinated PEEX observation network. The first action will be to combine
Nina Zaitseva’s list +the existing PEEX list (excel metadata list) + the Rosshydromet list and to outline a
PEEX stations catalogue. The PEEX catalogue includes also identification of station type with the a web-
based integrative list\ map -tool. Code of Contact - coordination: Tuukka Petäjä tuukka.petaja@helsinki.fi,
 
WG-3 Satellites addressed the satellite information needed to meet the PEEX research questions, see the
list below. Satellite observing systems inventory in implementation plan (List of EO data sources and
products + Land and atmosphere observing systems) are already included in the first draft of Infra-
Implementation Plan document. Code of Contact - coordination: Gerrit de Leeuw Gerrit.Leeuw@fmi.fi,

4. JOINT PAPERS
 
It was discussed that all the main topics of the research / research infrastructure introduced in the PEEX
Science Plan are aimed to be published also in scientific journals such as NATURE/SCIENCE, ACP, BG,
ECOLOGY AND SOCIETY, THE ENVIRONMENTALIST.
 
5. JOINT FUNDING
 
PEEX first funding opportunities, applications and grants were introduced and discussed.
Russian funding. V. Bondur introduced the Russian funding opportunities. It was addressed that the
main interest of the Russian funding organizations is on the solution orientated research not on a basic
research. For example natural hazards is one of the hot topics at the moment (see presentation by
Bondur).
EU- JPI-Climate GREENSCAPE proposal (see presentation by Vesala). GREENSCAPE consortium will
submit the 2-Phase proposal by the end of March. This specific EU-JPI-Climate call is co-designed
directly with the PEEX Science Plan. Member countries of the consortium are: Finland, UK, Sweden,
Belgium, Norway, Sweden + Russian cluster (17 institutes). The applied funding of the European
consortium is 2,2 MEURO. Russian cluster funding is based on the (i) in-kind contribution and (ii) funds
to be applied from the Russian funding organization.
EU-Horizon2020 MarieCurie PEEX proposal, see presentation by Lauri. PEEX consortium will submit a
proposal for the EU Call opening Sep 2014.
• a 2 year funding is provided by The Finnish Technology Agency for the “Beautiful Beijing” the air quality
project, see presentation by Järvi
Nordforsk has granted PEEX to organize six CRAICC – PEEX Workshops in 2014-2015 (see presentation
by Lappalainen):
- Short-living climate forcers in the Arctic and Eurasia(PI Petäjä, Univ. Helsinki)
- Carbon exchange in the soil-vegetation-atmosphere system(PIs Bäck, Laurila Univ. Helsinki, FMI)
- Climate change for Arctic seas and shipping( PI Mahura, DMI)
- Estimating and monitoring anthropogenic emission in the Arctic by using remote sensing (PI
Bobylev, Nansen)
- Climatology of the high-latitude planetary boundary layer (PI Esau, Nansen)
- Turbulent exchange across strongly heterogeneous interface (PI Vesala, Zilitinkewich Univ.Helsinki,
FMI)
The CRAICC-PEEX WSs will be organized in the connection of the large events/ conferences and will be
announced in the PEEX and CRAICC websites. The first WSs will take place autumn 2014. Further
information will be available soon.
 Negotiations on the China (MOST) –Finland (OKM) bilateral funding possibility is under way. The
funding would be allocated to initiate (i) the training programme and (ii) the first PEEX research
activities in China.
 
6. PEEX RELEVANT RESEARCH AND COLLABORATION
 
The one of the main PEEX collaborators are IIASA (see presentation by Shvidenko) and Future Earth (see
presentation by Greenslade) which activities were presented in the PEEX-4 meeting. Furthermore new
research topics (ethnodiversity, Stable Boundary Layers ) relevant to PEEX were introduced by Juha
Janhunen Univ. Helsinki and Bert Holstlag Wageningen University.
Elisabeth Larson (NASA) introduced the Arctic Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE). NASA's Terrestrial
Ecology Program is in the process of planning a major field campaign called the Arctic Boreal Vulnerability
Experiment (ABoVE). ABoVE will take place in Alaska and western Canada during the next 5 to 8 years.
ABoVE has similar components and research aims together with PEEX which provides a good basis for
future collaboration.
 
7. FIRST PEEX EDUCATION ACTIVITIES
