Abstract

Request for an EdEn Supplement to DEB-0217631 SGS-LTER: Long-Term Ecological Research-Shortgrass Steppe, proposing to form a consortium of four Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) programs (located in Michigan, Colorado, Baltimore, and Santa Barbara) that will engage in coordinated efforts to achieve two mutually reinforcing goals.

Description

The SGS-LTER research site was established in 1980 by researchers at Colorado State University as part of a network of long-term research sites within the US LTER Network, supported by the National Science Foundation. Scientists within the Natural Resource Ecology Lab, Department of Forest and Rangeland Stewardship, Department of Soil and Crop Sciences, and Biology Department at CSU, California State Fullerton, USDA Agricultural Research Service, University of Northern Colorado, and the University of Wyoming, among others, have contributed to our understanding of the structure and functions of the shortgrass steppe and other diverse ecosystems across the network while maintaining a common mission and sharing expertise, data and infrastructure.
