Last year, we signed a contract with LIFEPLAN project of University of Helsinki and agreed on running one out of the 100 study sites for them. Due to harsh winter and lock-downs, we only managed to kick out the project now. This year, we will be sampling in urban site in the proximity of university, and following year, we will work in more remote natural site. Overall, the project will run for 6 years.
