user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'The global ocean carbon cycle after peak emissions:  Dynamics and process attribution in a seamless model framework from coastal shelves to the open ocean' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon Europe call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Atmospheric CO2 levels are 49% above preindustrial levels due to anthropogenic CO2 emissions. The ocean takes up ~25% of these emissions and thereby mitigates climate change. The Global Carbon Budget annually quantifies the atmospheric CO2 sources (emissions) and sinks (e.g. ocean uptake), and I coordinate its ocean CO2 sink estimate. The uncertainty of the ocean sink estimate is huge: The range of estimates is 2.5 times larger than the CO2 emissions of the EU27. It is unknown whether the ocean sink has grown or stagnated since 2016. And yet, we face an even larger challenge with the imminent transition to a new regime: In the past, the ocean sink was controlled by fast-growing atmospheric CO2. After peak emissions, atmospheric CO2 will grow slower, stagnate or even decrease. I hypothesize that the dynamics of the ocean carbon sink will then be fundamentally different and poorly quantified ocean ventilation processes will be even more important. Ventilation transports carbon to the deep ocean and is the ‘bottleneck’ of the ocean sink.OceanPeak will establish a game-changing forecasting capacity of the truly global ocean CO2 uptake in societally-relevant low-emission scenarios. OceanPeak will go beyond the ‘surface and open ocean’ estimate with a seamless transition to coastal shelves and from surface to depth. With a unique multi-resolution ocean carbon cycle model, I will:1) develop a seamless coastal shelf to open ocean carbon cycle model and ground-truth ventilation processes based on newly-emerging observations to robustly quantify the ocean carbon sink to date2) characterize the dynamics of the ocean carbon sink under regimes after peak emissions3) attribute the evolution of the global ocean carbon sink to processes and quantify the time-scale of carbon sequestrati

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon Europe proposal for the project 'Fluxes at divergent plate Boundary Environments Analyzed in Time and Space'.

assistant: **Objectives**

FluxBEATS is a Doctoral Network in Earth sciences. It focusses on the material fluxes, magmatic, ore-forming and environmental processes at divergent plate boundaries and explores how these relate to processes since the Precambrian that formed the majority of the economic, mined global metal deposits. Comprehensive training in field, analytical, and modelling skills will involve 12 European academic and 5 non-academic partners and establish a unique training platform in interdisciplinary Earth Science research, involving Marine, Economic and Structural Geology, Geochemistry, Geophysics, Biogeochemistry, Geobiology, Petrology, Geodynamics, and Hydromechanics. The programme includes 10 doctoral candidates in two scientific working packages from the Earth's mantle through the crust to the ocean. FluxBEATS targets geological and environmental processes from the present to the past and will investigate complementary processes in both submarine and subaerial environments. The DCs will acquire a unique interdisciplinary, intersectoral scientific and internationally transferable skillset, preparing them to become Europe's highly demanded future leaders for responsible exploration and exploitation of mineral resources in the submarine and subaerial environment in a world of increasing demand of critical metals. The DCs will develop novel, integrated models of elemental transport, ore-formation as well as evolution of ecosystem changes at divergent plate boundaries through time. Overall, FluxBEATS will therefore provide an academic and non-academic perspective on the fundamental processes that control the occurrence and quality of base and precious metal resources in high economic demand, and the evolution of ecosystems through time, and establish a basis for future responsible E

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Bandgap engineering of graphene by molecular self-assembly' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

BENGRAS is a Marie Curie IIF project that focuses on multidisciplinary transfer of knowledge from a promising Australian early career researcher to KU Leuven towards the design and synthesis of novel functional nano-materials and the development of advanced analytical techniques for material analysis. The project will study bandgap engineering in graphene induced by physi- and chemi- sorption of self-assembled molecular monolayers, which is an interdisciplinary research topic centered at the interface between materials science, supramolecular chemistry, nanoscience and physics. Graphene, a material consisting of flat one-atom-thick sheets of carbon atoms has enormous potential for the use in electronic transistors because of the unique electronic properties and the reduced dimensionality. Graphene is a ‘zero-gap’ semiconductor and to unlock its electronic properties two basic requirements must be satisfied. Firstly, precise control over electronic band structure (bandgap) is needed. This can be achieved by adsorbing atoms and molecules (e.g. H, OH, K, NH3) on its surface thus generating local mid-gap states. Secondly, the means to control the degree of ordering and periodicity of modified graphene layers are to be derived. In other words, the regions where bandgap can be locally tuned have to be extended to a micron scale for practical applications. At present, this issue remains largely unexplored. This project will investigate the electronic structure of graphene the surface of which has been nano-patterned by physisorped (i.e. weak surface interactions) and covalent (i.e. strong surface interactions) molecular monolayers. Through BENGRAS the fellow will contribute extensive expertise in carbonaceous materials and spectroscopy towards controlled modification of electr

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'fuTure hydRogen Assisted gas turbiNeS for effective carbon capTure IntegratiON' (TRANSITION).

assistant: **Concept**

The achievement of the EU targets established for 2030 for a more sustainable, cost-effective and environmentally-neutral energy production will not only require increasing the penetration of renewable energy sources (RES) into the actual mix, but necessarily point to reduce the carbon footprint of the conventional technologies based on the use of natural gas which is required to complement and compensate intermittent availability of RES. TRANSITION objective is to pave the way for carbon-neutral energy generation from natural gas-fired power plants using gas turbines (GT), by enabling a highly efficient Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) process in the post-combustion phase. This will be achieved by the development of advanced hydrogen assisted combustion technologies capable to permit stable engine operations with high Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) rates leading to high CO2 content in the exhaust gas sent to the CCS unit. Two distinct scenarios will be considered, by i) validating up to TRL4 retrofit hydrogen-based burners targeting 50% EGR rate and ii) proving up to TRL 3 more aggressive technologies adopting hydrogen/oxygen flame piloting to reach 60% EGR. Experimental tests (from atmospheric up to full-engine pressure) will support the technology assessment and the validation of high-fidelity numerical CFD models. Overall CCS-GT system integration will be also carried out with technical and economic analysis. The global sustainability of the proposed technologies will also be investigated to assess environmental/social/economic impacts.TRANSITION outcomes will enable the decarbonisation of GT-based power plants, which are among the most efficient energy thermal generators adopted in several energy-intensive applications.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Microbial-induced Angiogenesis in the Gut' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

Objective: The mammalian gut is colonized by trillions of bacteria. These gut microbes (microbiota) have coevolved with the host and developed traits that affects host physiology. Interestingly, germ-free (GF) mice exhibit arrested intestinal vascularisation if compared to littermates that were raised in a non-sterile environment (CONV-R, conventional-raised). Intestinal colonization with a normal microbiota initiates massive formation of capillary networks in the intestine of ex-GF mice (CONV-D, conventional-derived). The underlying molecular mechanisms that lead to formation of intricate capillary networks are completely unknown and therefore intense research is needed to elucidate how gut microbes trigger the formation of capillary networks. In the outlined project we will dissect proangiogenic molecules that can be induced by colonization with a gut microbiota and thus regulate microvessel formation in the intestinal mucosa. Methods: To uncover proangiogenic genes upregulated in response to microbial colonization we will perform qRT-PCR-analyses on small intestinal tissues collected from GF and CONV-R mice. The vascular marker CD31 (PECAM-1) will be used to quantify villus vascularization by immunohistochemistry and qRT-PCR. Preliminary results: We found that microbial colonization of the intestine leads to formation of an intricate vascular network. This process could be efficiently blocked by administration of an antibody directed against Tissue Factor (TF), the initiator molecule of coagulation. A distinct set of proangiogenic genes was identified to be upregulated in a TF-dependent manner following microbial colonization. Significance: A detailed understanding on how microbes affect intestinal morphogenesis and in particular the formation of microvessels in the

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Harmonised European Land Monitoring' (HELM) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The land surface is a decisive factor regarding the state of the environment and human well-being. To manage it well, regularly obtained up do date information on land use and land cover is needed. Land monitoring provides this information through thematic maps based on the interpretation of areal photography, satellite imagery and further sources. These maps aid spatial planning, nature protection, agricultural policy, forestry, water catchment area management, etc.In spite of its importance, land monitoring in Europe is quite inefficient owing to lacking coordination between the national, sub-national, and European levels. Efforts are duplicated and given opportunities for mutual support are not utilised which means a substantial waste of resources.HELM is a network of authorities concerned with land monitoring across Europe. It will initiate a move to increase the maturity of European land monitoring along five sequential steps: (1) mutual interest in achieving reciprocal knowledge, (2) shared visions and planning for the future, (3) joint activities by taking on tasks collectively, (4) alignment of national systems involving the mutual adaptation of data interpretation methods and of the timing of data gathering, (5) lasting integration and combining data across all administrative levels.HELM envisions a coherent European land monitoring system characterised by high quality data and efficient productivity. This system will combine the broad range of specific expertise and resources of relevant authorities in the member states. Their work will be supported through targeted centrally supplied measures fulfilling common requirements for raw data and data processing.Through a continuous flow of knowledge from the local to the European scale and the other way round, futu

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'An Universal Flexible Low-cost Plumbing and Heating pipe system fully Environment-compatible by using innovative Nanoparticle technology' (NANOFLEX).

assistant: **Innovation**

The building and construction community in Europe includes about 150000 plumbing, heating, ventilation, air conditioning contractor SMEs with 1.2 million employees generating a total turnover of €130Bn. Our community faces the challenges of meeting the growing demand for plastic pipes and the EU Landfill Directive and the revised EU Waste Framework Directive. The polluter-pays principle says that the costs of waste management are to be borne partly or wholly by the producer of the product from which the waste came and the distributors of such products, who are our SME members. Under floor heating, radiator heating and plumbing systems accounting in total 1.7 million kilometres of new piping in Europe, of which 56%, namely 0.96 million km are plastic pipes. 46% of these plastic pipes are made of PEX, which due to its cross-linked nature is not recyclable. Recycling of multilayer pipes with encapsulated aluminium results in highly toxic by-products. About 3500 tonnes of scrap plastic pipes is disposed of in land fill due to the use of non-recyclable plastics.Our idea is the development of a universal flexible plastic pipe system suitable for under floor heating, radiator heating and drinking water distribution. We propose to develop a pipe without PEX, and without an integral aluminium layer to allow 100% of the pipe scrap to be recycled. We will achieve this by replacing aluminium or expensive EVOH oxygen barrier materials with innovative nanocomposites in combination with a redefined wrapping technology.The plumbing and heating contractors will benefit from selling a new innovative fully environment-compatible universal pipe system providing: savings in costs for storage, transportation, and logistics; improved work facilities (easy to install and bend); waste cost savi

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Probabilistic and Compositional Representations of Objects for Robotic Manipulation' (PaCMan), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

The challenge laid out in this call for proposals is to advance technologies for, and understand the principles of cognition and control in complex systems. We will meet this challenge by advancing methods for object perception, representation and manipulation so that a robot is able to robustly manipulate objects even when those objects are unfamiliar, and even though the robot has unreliable perception and action. The proposal is founded on two assumptions. The first of these is that the representation of the object's shape in particular and of other properties in general will benefit from being compositional (or very loosely hierarchical and part based). The second is that manipulation planning and execution benefits from explicitly reasoning about uncertainty in object pose, shape etcetera; how it changes under the robot's actions, and the robot should plan actions that not only achieve the task, but gather information to make task achievement more reliable.<br/>These two assumptions are mirrored in the structure of the proposed work, as we will develop two main strands of work:<br/>i) a multi-modal compositional, probabilistic representation of object properties to support perception and manipulation, and ii) algorithms for reasoning with this representation, that will estimate object properties from visual and haptic data, and also plan how to actively gather information about shape and other object properties (frictional coefficients, mass) while achieving a task. These two strands will be combined and tested on robots performing aspects of a dishwasher loading task. The outcome will be robust manipulation (i.e. under unreliable perception and action) of unfamiliar objects from familiar categories or with familiar parts.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Unraveling the mechanobiology of tissue growth in native and tissue-engineered heart valves' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

The currently available heart valve prostheses do not consist of living tissue and, hence, they cannot grow, repair, and remodel in response to changing demands. This restricts the use of valve replacements in pediatric patients, since they need multiple reoperations to accommodate somatic growth. Tissue-engineered heart valves (TEHVs) may be able to overcome this limitation due to their growth and remodeling potential. However, the exact growth and remodeling processes remain poorly understood, which has become evident in many pre-clinical studies where TEHVs lost their functionality over time due to adverse tissue remodeling. The goal of this proposal is to unravel the mechanisms of tissue growth in native valves and TEHVs by integrating advanced continuum mechanics and cell biology, in order to develop predictive models of valve growth that can guide and optimize tissue engineering of heart valves. To achieve this goal, I will first be trained in developing continuum models of valve growth in the lab of Dr. Kuhl at Stanford University, who is a leading expert in modeling soft tissue growth. Furthermore, I will be trained in cell biology and mechanobiology which will enable me to develop agent-based mechanobiological models as a driving mechanism for valve growth in the continuum models.I will use the obtained knowledge to analyze and predict growth of TEHVs in Europe. At this moment, mechanistic models of valve growth are not available. The models that I will develop during and after my training will provide crucial information for designing TEHVs with long-term functionality and growth potential, and will boost European excellence and competitiveness in the fields of biomechanics and tissue engineering. Moreover, the training that I will receive will significantly e
