ILTER intends to foster international collaboration among researchers and maximise the strengths of the global ILTER network of site-based research infrastructures. Therefore, ILTER provides small research grants for compact projects, or for instance as seed grants for larger undertakings, or for supporting thesis or post-doctoral work by young scientists. Previous and ongoing ILTER Scientific Initiatives have covered various research disciplines and topics such as community ecology, biodiversity, biogeochemistry, ecosystem services, socio-ecology, water and material cycles, sustainability and resilience.
