全球变化对生物多样性和人类福祉的影响要求改善长期环境数据，作为科学、政策和决策的基础，包括增强互操作性、多功能性和协调性。本文以国际长期生态研究网络（ILTER）和地球观测组织生物多样性观测网（GEO BON）为例，提出了将生态系统完整性和基本生物多样性变量这两项倡议背后的框架合并起来的建议，以作为未来陆地、淡水和沿海生态系统基于站点的长期研究和监测的改进指南。我们提出了一份具体建议清单，说明在监测站点测量什么和如何测量，并呼吁将站点整合到跨单个监测计划的共址站点网络中，并以生态系统为中心。这有助于生成相互关联的综合生态系统监测数据，支持在使用昂贵的基础设施方面发挥协同作用，促进跨倡议研究，并为ILTER和GEO BON社区之外的合作提供模板。(C) 2017年作者。Elsevier B.V.出版
Global change effects on biodiversity and human wellbeing call for improved long-term environmental data as a basis for science, policy and decision making, including increased interoperability, multifunctionality, and harmonization. Based on the example of two global initiatives, the International Long-Term Ecological Research (ILTER) network and the Group on Earth Observations Biodiversity Observation Network (GEO BON), we propose merging the frameworks behind these initiatives, namely ecosystem integrity and essential biodiversity variables, to serve as an improved guideline for future site-based long-term research and monitoring in terrestrial, freshwater and coastal ecosystems. We derive a list of specific recommendations of what and how to measure at amonitoring site and call for an integration of sites into co-located site networks across individual monitoring initiatives, and centered on ecosystems. This facilitates the generation of linked comprehensive ecosystem monitoring data, supports synergies in the use of costly infrastructures, fosters cross-initiative research and provides a template for collaboration beyond the ILTER and GEO BON communities.
