Cross site investigation using LTER Data.
I would like to propose a 2-day meeting in 2010 bringing together scientists from any and all LTER sites interested in comparative soil organic matter analysis. One day would be devoted entirely to planning cross-site comparative analyses and potential publications, and the other day would be devoted to discussions of the various tools and techniques… Read more »
A follow up workshop for a synthesis and modeling paper that builds on a workshop held at the LTER ASM 2009 meeting in Estes Park, CO (“Quantifying carbon and nutrient transformations in aquatic ecosystems at regional to continental scales in response to environmental change”).
We propose to use existing LTER data to create a synthesis paper addressing how intra-annual rainfall variability affects productivity and relative abundance of plant species in communities across the range of ecosystems in the LTER.
This working group was broken into 5 (five) sub-working groups Trends disturbance-April 8-9, 2009-Las Cruces, NM, Ariel Lugo was lead.–Final Report Trends Writing Group-NPP/biodiversity-April 13-14, 2009-Las Cruces, NM, Alan Knapp was lead.–Final Report Trends Socio-Econ-Not held Trends Animals-May 11-12, 2009-San Diego, CA,Bob Waide was lead.–Final Report Trends State Changes-May 1-2, 2009-Las Cruces, NM, Aaron Ellison… Read more »
This workshop was organized and convened by MCM (Andrew Fountain) and PAL (Hugh Ducklow). The purpose of the workshop was to examine the role of diminished snow and ice on ecosystem structure and function and on ecosystem services across the diverse habitats found in the LTER Network. The longer-term goal is to synthesize existing knowledge… Read more »
