iLEAPS, the Integrated Land Ecosystem – Atmosphere Processes Study is the 10 year land-atmosphere core project of the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP). The scientific goal of iLEAPS is to provide understanding how interacting physical, chemical and biological processes transport and transform energy and matter through the land-atmosphere interface. The project studies interactions and feedbacks from the cell level to global scale. Times scales range from diurnal to centennial, past to future. iLEAPS encourages international and crossdisciplinary collaboration, particularly involving scientists from the developing countries.
