Based on emerging scientific trends and the roles that field stations and marine labs play in research, education, and stewardship, this report recommends the following goals to guide the future of FSMLs: (1) increase the value to society of the science done at FMSLs, and ensure public understanding of that value; (2) augment the scientific value of FSMLs by increasing the flow of information, both between FSMLs and scientists and among FSMLs themselves; (3) enhance the synergies between research and education; (4) promote appropriate access by scientists and students to terrestr

MOU LTER-NPN

Memorandum of Understanding between the National Phenological Network and the Long Term Ecological Research Network for Cooperation in Phenological Monitoring and Assessment

An introduction to the Organization of Biological Field Stations, including common research themes, new initiatives on the horizon, and collaborations with the LTER Network.

Strategic Partnership: San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC), National Partnership for Advanced Computational Infrastructure (NPACI), Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) Network Deputy Director, SDSC Executive Director, NPACI Strategic Partnerships This presentation describes how these organizations fit together and benefit from collaborations on such subjects as Biological Scale Process Modeling, Information Based Computing, and other multidisciplinary endeavors.
