  2. Researchareas The overall framework of the BONUS strategic research agenda 2011-2017 consists of five main strategic objectives that form the backbone for a total of 19 specifically defined themes. The first strategic objective aims at understanding the complexity of the Baltic Sea ecosystem structure and functioningThe second strategic objective aims to meet the multifaceted challenges in linking the Baltic Sea with its coast and catchment areaThe goal of the third strategic objective is to enhance sustainable use of coastal and marine goods and services of the Baltic SeaThe fourth strategic objective aims at improving the capabilities of the society to respond to the current and future challenges directed to the Baltic Sea regionThe goal of the fifth strategic objective is to develop improved and innovative observation and data management systems, tools and methodologies for marine information needs in the Baltic Sea region

Theme 5.1, as developing the science basis of monitoring is a logical element for inclusion since themes of strategic objectives 1 and 3 address quantification of Marine Strategy Framework Directive’s good environmental status descriptors Theme 4.1, as this will allow incorporating the governance and policy issues into broad multi-disciplinary research proposals, as well as to design research proposals with societal responses and driving forces as the central subject Each proposal will be requested to identify one leading theme and two to four supplementary themes from those opened for this call Budget: up to EUR 40 million depending on the outcome of evaluation http://www.bonusportal.org/bonus_2010-2016/bonus_calls/thematic_call_2011/
