Wadden Sea Long Term Ecosystem Research (WaLTER) (KB-24-002-019)

WaLTER “Wadden Sea Long-Term Ecosystem Research” is a combined initiative of a number of institutes and organisations that carry out multiannual measurements and research in the Wadden Sea area. The aims of the project are the development of a blueprint for the fundamental monitoring necessary for important themes in the Wadden Sea area, and a data portal for Wadden data.

Discussions take place between involved parties (partners, advisory board, feedback groups) and other initiatives at the national, trilateral and international levels.

WaLTER has launched a public online platform which provides advice for monitoring (themes), grants access to relevant Wadden Sea area data (data portal) and functional data and information products (tools) for policy- and decision-making, and science.

WaLTER is financed by the Waddenfonds with additional contributions from the provinces of  North-Holland and Fryslân.
