• Summary: This dataset refers to the approved ISP projects (ISP1, ISP2 and ISP3) granted by IAI. The ISP is a program to augment on-going scientific activities in research, training and education, data and information collection, climate modeling as well as a limited number of workshops. 39 Grants are being funded under the ISP with a duration of up to three years. The ISP Grants are administered by the IAI Directorate. The IAI has invested approximately US$ 4 million over the period of 1996-2001. The data collection that will be referenced on related granules are formed by Executive Summaries, Project Results, Statistics Information and real data provided by project investigators. Requests for other documents or/and materials can be directed to the contact person of this dataset.
