The Finnish Marine Research Infrastructure (FINMARI) combines all major partners (Syke, FMI, GTK, Luke, Universities of Helsinki, Turku and Åbo Akademi) of the Finnish marine research community. It is a distributed infrastructure network of field stations, research vessels, laboratory facilities, ferryboxes, autonomous measurement platforms and buoys. FINMARI provides access to observational and experimental marine research facilities. Our joint infrastructure development plan is based on addressing the multiscale variability of the marine environment by integrating the complementary areas of expertise of each partner. FIRI2023 project aims at filling the remaining gaps in the present research infrastructure as well as maturing digitalization and Open Access to data and services. FINMARI will concentrate on global Triple Crisis: biodiversity loss, climate change and pollution and will act as a link between science and policy makers.
