The site of Qualiagro is part of the French national network SOERE PRO (System of Observation and Experimentation for Environmental Research on Organic Residue Recycling). The objectives of QualiAgro are to characterize the agronomic value of urban waste composts and their environmental impacts, in a long-term field trials and related laboratory characterization of the residues. The experimental site (48.90°N and 1.97°E) is located in Feucherolles France (175 m.a.s.l.) with a modified oceanic climate. The soil is a typical Luvisol on loess of the Paris Basin. It has been initiated in 1998 (INRA-Veolia partnership). It is structured as a complete randomized block design (4 replicates, 450m²/plots) on a total surface of 6 ha and include 5 organic treatments: 3 urban composts - a co-compost of Green Waste and Sludge (GWS), a Biowaste compost (BIOW) and a municipal solid waste compost (MSW) - , 1 reference organic amendment not composted - a farmyard manure (FYM)- and the control - without organic input. Amendments are applied every 2 years on wheat stubble with an objective of 4 t C ha-1. Additionally, the different treatments received 2 levels of additional mineral nitrogen: low mineral N or optimum mineral N. The field is managed in conventional wheat-maize rotation. Site and plots are equipped for continuous monitoring of meteorological data, soil temperature and humidity. One plot of each treatment is equipped with wick lysimeters at 2 depths (0.45 m and 1 m). At the end of 2014, automatics chambers for N2O and CO2 emission survey will be settled, in order to assess greenhouse gas emissions related to composts and manure use. A Large set of variables mainly including physico-chemical characteristics, are monitored on different compartments of the agro-system (composts, soils, plants, water leaching). For example composts quality, crop yields and grain and crop residues analytical characteristics , main soil analytical characteristics per layer , the chemical composition of soil solution (collected with lysimeters), biological communities (microfauna and macrofauned sampling, microbial biomass ) and activities (enzymatic activities, mineralization of organic matter). Data will be stored in a common database specifically developed for the SOERE PRO network and connected with the other SOERE. Soil and plant samples are kept in collection and available for further measurements.

UMS BBEES provides the CNRS and the National Museum of Natural History’s research units and researchers with technical and scientific supports to structure, perpetuate or pool their databases. Its interventions result in advices or direct actions during several days to several months in order to relaunch or restructure databases. It benefits the environment in place at the Museum (Service du Patrimoine Naturel, Inventaire national du Patrimoine naturel, collections patrimoniales, Pôle recherche de la DSI, etc). This structure is not designed to administer databases, which remain the responsibility of the teams that produce them, or to provide them with accommodation, which may be the DSI of the Museum or other suitable structure. However, it can provide guidance on these points. To facilitate the integration of databases in national and international frameworks, the UMS BBEES offers recommendations, including: - The constitution of corpus and data processing; - The choice of tools; - Structuring data; - Metadata. These recommendations are in line with the operative standards and norms, such as the European Directive INSPIRE (2007/2 / CE of 14 March 2007) for geographical informations, or the choice of a common taxonomic repository for existing biodiversity databases (INPN, GBIF, collections databases). The issue of identification and accessibility of databases is also at the heart of the concerns of the UMS BBEES, particularly the inactive databases (for example databases developed in the framework of national programs and stored on personal computers) and bases on standby (accessible databases, but are not supplied or operated). Investigations are and will be regularly conducted with the directors of research units in order to identify all the databases produced by the units (inactive standby, developing and active), but also to anticipate and accompany the bases of development applications as part of national and international research programs. UMS BBEES gave a particular attention to the implementation of regulations concerning intellectual property in the particular field of databases. Thus, it does not facilitate the dissemination of databases that do not comply with legislation.

Le recensement des dispositifs de collecte de données « nature » que l'Etat et la Région ont confié à Natureparif en janvier 2009 dans le cadre de la mise en uvre du système d'information sur la nature et les paysages (SINP), constitue une étape importante pour la mise en place de l'Observatoire régional de la biodiversité. Il est réalisé dans un contexte francilien où la connaissance est ancienne et volumineuse, et provient d'un grand nombre d'acteurs. Au 5 décembre 2011, Natureparif a recensé plus de 2 000 études dont 1 064 sont validées par les structures concernées. Elles révèlent le remarquable effort réalisé par les différents acteurs du territoire en matière d'acquisition de connaissances sur la biodiversité.
