Climate Variability and Ecosystem Response at Long-Term Ecological Research Sites

Established in 1980, the LTER (Long-Term Ecological Research) program is exploring a wide variety of biomes characteristic of the United States and developing a baseline for ecosystem dynamics over long time periods and broad spatial scales. The volumes in this series will include both comprehensive reviews of research from particular sites and topical overviews which use data from many sites to examine important questions in ecology. Global climate change is a central issue facing the world, and many scientists across a wide range of fields have been studying it. The LTER sites hold some of the best available data for measuring the long term impacts and changes in the environment. This book presents and integrates data from research that has taken place at all twenty LTER sites.Greenland, David is the author of 'Climate Variability and Ecosystem Response at Long-Term Ecological Research Sites' with ISBN 9780195150599 and ISBN 0195150597.
