New findings from international multidisciplinary collaboration at the @ICOS_RI #MajadasdeTiétar research station. Don’t miss this article just published in @GlobalChangeBio onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/V4X7RI6C… @MPI_BGC @SpecLab_CSIC @CeamFundacion @indehesa @CSIC

Today, staff from the Izaña ICOS station, located at the historic Izaña Observatory (@AEMET_izana), carried out mandatory leak tests in the laboratory and along the intake line. These tests are performed every 6 months to ensure the high data quality that characterises @ICOS_RI.

The Earth’s energy imbalance has reached a new high. In a stable climate, incoming energy from the sun is about the same as the amount of outgoing energy. But increasing greenhouse gas concentrations have upset the equilibrium. 🆕#StateOfClimate 2025: bit.ly/StateOfClimate…

Dr. Emilio Cuevas, former Scientific Director of the Izaña Atmospheric Research Center, was an outstanding scientist, a pioneer in atmospheric science, and a founding pillar of ICOS-Spain. We would like to share this small tribute in his memory: icos-spain.aemet.es/EmilioCuevas

👏La Estación de Sondeos Atmosféricos de El Arenosillo se convierte en la primera estación atmosférica de clase 2 de @ICOS_Spain @ICOS_RI en la Península Ibérica 🔝 ➡️inta.es/INTA/es/comuni…

Late last year, the @WMO #GAW programme published new guidelines for measuring carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. Experiences in setting up the ICOS network and Atmosphere station specifications fed into the final guidelines. Read the story: icos-cp.eu/news-and-event…

GHG measurements at El Arenosillo station (ARN, @intaespana), part of @ICOS_RI, require well-maintained sampling lines at 10, 50 and 100 m. On 14 Dec 2025, maintenance work and replacement of protection systems were carried out. #GHG #AtmosphericObservations #TallTower #ICOS

Data from the ICOS Ecosystem station Lison in Italy shows that its vineyard can be a carbon sink. “You can see some accumulation of carbon in the soil. This is compensating for the CO2 released during management.” Watch the full #ExploreICOS video: icos-cp.eu/exploreicos-pr…

🌲A new study from @UniFreiburg shows recurring years of heat and drought since 2018 have caused long-term damage to a pine forest in southwestern Germany. The longitudinal observational study was conducted at ICOS Ecosystem station Hartheim. Read more: icos-cp.eu/news-and-event…
