Steering Committee
All activities of the TRY initiative are headed by the Steering Committee, which comprises leading scientists from around the globe, including the principle investigators of the former IGBP Fast Track Initiative on Refining Plant Functional Classifications and the hosting institute of the TRY database.
The Steering Committee provides guidance for the development of the TRY initiative and has facilitated third party funding from
DIVERSITAS,
IGBP, QUEST and the
Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry - the basis for a long-term perspective of TRY.
