S.N.O.W.M.A.N.
Sustainable management of soil and groundwater under the pressure of soil pollution and soil contamination

The SNOWMAN ERA-Net contract with the European Commission ends 30.06.09.
SNOWMAN will exist beyond this date as a self-maintained research funding network. The SNOWMAN Network is currently working on a separate homepage presenting you up-to-date content. It will also cover the experience gained during the ERA-Net phase and consequently refer to this ERA-Net homepage you right now visit.

SNOWMAN has published its Concluding Report not only as printed brochures, but an online version including all public files of the ERA-Net. You can easily access the Concluding Report Portal by typing in the SNOWMAN homepage address into your browser: http://www.snowman-era.net.

Thank you very much for your interest in SNOWMAN!

Original content of the SNOWMAN homepage's starting page:

The SNOWMAN project is one amongst more than 70 ERA-Nets run across the European Union and being funded by the 6. Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development of the European Commission. 15 of these are belonging to the Environment topic.

SNOWMAN understands itself as a network of European research funders and administrations providing the platform for soil and groundwater research bridging the gap between knowledge demand and supply.

The network consists of seven partner organisations from seven European Member States. SNOWMAN as an ERA-Net has worked out documents and a mechanism on how to realise the trans-national cooperation in research funding between the project's partner countries resulting in a coordinated call for research. It is the only ERA-Net dealing with the soil topic.
