We are excited to announce that CLIMAREST has formalized our collaboration with Blue-Cloud 2026 through the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (#MoU)! This agreement reflects our shared commitment to advancing research and innovation in marine and coastal #ecosystemresilience, #restoration, and #sustainablemanagement.
The collaboration aims to advance tools and protocols that support ecosystem restoration and sustainable practices, and will focus on several key areas of mutual interest, such as data integration, Virtual Research Environments (VREs), knowledge exchange and community engagement.
The #CLIMAREST Virtual Laboratory will be built on the Blue-Cloud Virtual Research Environment, and our Marine Restoration Lab will leverage Blue-Cloud’s JupyterHub environment to host a series of interactive notebooks.

Blue-Cloud 2026, coordinated by the Institute of Information Science and Technologies (CNR-ISTI) of the Italian National Research Council, aims to contribute to a federated European ecosystem that provides easy and open access to FAIR and open data, alongside analytical services, to support research in oceans, seas, coastal, and inland waters. Its objectives include building a robust technical infrastructure, creating virtual laboratories for marine societal challenges, and contributing to the public infrastructure of the European Digital Twin of the Ocean initiative, EDITO.
