Thematic synergism between the Working Groups (WG) of ERNEST. WGs 1, 2, and 3 form the core of scientific knowledge of the Action, and the overlaps represent shared focus and potential for interdisciplinary cooperation. WG4 will support the three core WGs with new methods and technologies and also establish best practice standards for their application. Output from the three core workgroups (arrows out) will be incorporated by WG5 into database resources for public dissemination, and WG5 will generate database tools that will feedback into the three core WGs (arrows in).
