ICOS Sweden is an infrastructure of national importance with funding from the Swedish Research Council (Vetenskapsrådet). Swedish researchers were among the pioneers when it came to measuring the exchange of greenhouse gases between ecosystems and the atmosphere. ICOS Sweden is building on this tradition with collaboration among researchers at different institutions.

The scheme below is an overview how ICOS Sweden is organized. Please choose from the menu on the left to get more information about the different organs.
SAC: Scientific Advisory Committee, SE: Scientific Experts, PI: Principal Investigator

The coordination office is responsible for the day to day work within ICOS Sweden and the follow-up of activities, as well as for reporting to the ICOS Sweden board and to the Swedish Research Council. In addition, the coordination office is the contact point between the ICOS Sweden partners, between ICOS Sweden and pan-European ICOS RI and communicates with stakeholder and external users.

The ICOS Sweden coordination office is hosted by the Centre for Environmental and Climate Research (CEC) at Lund University. CEC is part of the Faculty of Science.

Its position of the director is shared by Prof Janne Rinne (science director) and Dr Maj-Lena Linderson (coordination director). Please click here for contact details.

The board members represent both potential stakeholder interests and different scientific fields which are of relevance for the ICOS infrastructure. The board is responsible for the economy and the general strategy of ICOS Sweden.

The members are (in alphabetical order):

• Leif Anderson, chair, University of Gothenburg
  
• Hannele Hakola, Finnish Meteorological Institute
  
• Mattias Lundblad, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences
  
• Birgitta Resvik, Fortum Stockholm
  
• Benjamin Smith, Lund University
  
• Anke Thoss, Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute
  

ICOS Sweden has a scientific advisory committee (SAC), appointed by the board, consisting of independent members selected from internationally leading scientific institutions or international organizations active in the fields of monitoring or modelling of greenhouse gas fluxes, or their applications.

The role of the SAC is to follow the activities and operation of ICOS Sweden and give advise on the scientific and international development of the infrastructure.

The members are (in alphabetical order):

• Inez Fung University of California, Berkeley, USA
  
• Monique Leclerc, University of Georgia, Athens, USA
  
• Yiqi Luo, Northern Arizona University, Flagstaff, USA
  
• Peter Rayner, University of Melbourne, Australia
  

The station coordination group (SCG) promotes the coordination of the field stations' activities and acts in an advisory capacity to the ICOS Sweden board.

The SCG consists of a chair, a senior advisor, the coordination office and the SPIs (Station Principal Investigator) and has the following members (in alphabetical order):

• Prof Patrick Crill, Co-SPI Abisko-Stordalen, Stockholm University

The External Users Group is intended to consist of representatives of all groups, institutes and organizations that use, or intend to use, the ICOS Sweden infrastructure in some way. This of course includes both those users primarily interested in simply using the data products provided by the ICOS measurement program, as well those who themselves are operating ancillary measurement programs at the field stations.

In addition to this advisory group, it is also foreseen to establish a more informal grouping open to everyone interested in the activities of ICOS Sweden - not only actual users.
