What if we cranked up air conditioning? What if we pushed soils, oceans and natural resources even further?

IRD is present in more than 50 countries across Africa, Latin America, Asia and the Pacific, and in France’s overseas territories. In the face of global change, it promotes research that benefits the greatest number and puts science at the service of action.
From coral reefs to public policy, overseas territories are at the front line of ocean research. As natural laboratories and hubs of innovation, they help build science for sustainability. CNRS runs major projects there with local partners.
GBIF France is part of the pilot phase of the initiative and runs an instance of a new tool—the Metabarcoding Data Toolkit (MDT)—an IPT-equivalent for eDNA resources.
This webinar (in English) introduces the changes GBIF is proposing to improve the Darwin Core vocabulary.
