We are over 2000 researchers at 28 sites who apply long-term observation, experiments, and modeling to understand how ecological systems function over decades. Read All…

Research

LTER research integrates many disciplines to understand ecological processes as they play out at individual sites, while synthetic studies reveal broader principles that operate at a global scale. Read All…

Education

Long-term relationships with schools, community groups, resource managers, and landowners provide a foundation for innovative education and outreach programs. Undergraduate and graduate students benefit from working with a diverse and close-knit community of researchers. Read All…

A new one from @caplter showing the power of their Phoenix Area Social Survey! We heard all about it last week at the Science Council meeting-great to see it in action!

Paper alert! A @USLTER working group synthesized data from 39 global change experiments, looking at how plants that adapted to a 1st change (e.g. temperature, drought, nutrient supply) fared against a 2nd. The takeaway? Specializing in 1 resource was not as important as expected!

Can't wait to see the palettes people create from photos of LTER sites. Looks like a few here from @HJA_Live & @LterNiwot–but we know there's a million great potential LTER palettes!

And hey! @scilyon is an LTER analyst, too (and a great one at that)!

Need a long term inventory of the ocean microbiome? @cce_lter uses metabarcoding to catalogue who's around-and then can start to understand this "hidden diversity".

How do you beat the Phoenix heat? Water, and staggering between spots of shade, according to Dan Childers!

We're halfway through the 2022 Science Council Meeting at @caplter, and it's been OH so good to see everyone in person!
