Palmer Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER): an overview of the 1991-1992 season. Ross, R. M. & Quetin, L. B. Antarctic Journal of the United States, 1992. abstract bibtex Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) recognizes that some ecological phenomena occur on time scales of decades or centuries, and that investigations on these time scales are not routinely supported by funding agencies. Without an understanding of interannual variability over the long term, interpretation of ecological experiments and distinguishing long-term trends from cyclic changes in natural ecosystems is difficult. The LTER Network, sponsored by the National Science Foundation, has grown during the last decade to a total of eighteen sites in ecosystems ranging from tall grass prairies to tundra. To facilitate comparison and the ability to construct ecological generalities, all sites are required to set up research efforts in five core areas: pattern and control of primary production; spatial and temporal distribution of populations representing trophic structures; pattern and control of organic matter accumulation; pattern of inorganic inputs and movements of nutrients; and pattern and frequency of disturbance to the research site.
