9632853 Magnuson Lakes are central to the vitality of landscapes and society. As collectors of water, energy, solutes, and pollutants from the landscape and atmosphere, as habitats for aquatic biota, and as attractors of human activities, lakes affect and are affected by natural and human-induced changes in the local and regional landscape and atmosphere. The North Temperate Lakes Long-term Ecological Research program seeks to understand the long-term ecology of lakes and their interactions with a range of relevant landscape, atmospheric, and human processes. This program has the following interrelated goals: * Perceive long-term changes in the physical, chemical, and biological properties of lake ecosystems, * Understand interactions among physical, chemical, an biological processes within lakes and their influence on lake characteristics and long-term dynamics, * Develop a regional understanding of lake ecosystems through an analysis of the patterns and processes organizing lake districts, * Develop a regional understanding of lake ecosystems through integration of atmospheric, hydrologic, and biotic processes, and * Understand the way human, hydrologic, and biogeochemical processes interact within the terrestrial landscape to affect lakes and the way lakes, in turn, influence these interactions. Research will examine patterns, processes, and interactions of lakes and their surroundings at a nested set of spatial and temporal scales. This comprehensive long-term research program will yield important understanding of landscape-lake-human interactions that will have direct relevance to development of policies affecting the future of the Upper Great Lakes Region and enhancement of the quality of life for its residents.

9632853马格努森湖是景观和社会活力的核心。作为水、能量、溶质和景观和大气污染物的收集者，作为水生生物的栖息地，以及作为人类活动的吸引者，湖泊影响着当地和区域景观和大气的自然和人为变化，也受到这些变化的影响。北温带湖泊长期生态研究计划旨在了解湖泊的长期生态及其与一系列相关景观，大气和人类过程的相互作用。该方案有以下相互关联的目标： * 感知湖泊生态系统的物理、化学和生物特性的长期变化， * 了解湖泊内物理、化学和生物过程之间的相互作用及其对湖泊特征和长期动态的影响， * 通过分析湖泊地区的组织模式和过程，发展对湖泊生态系统的区域理解， * 通过大气、水文和生物过程的整合，发展对湖泊生态系统的区域理解， * 了解人类，水文和地球化学过程在陆地景观中相互作用以影响湖泊的方式，以及湖泊反过来影响这些相互作用的方式。 研究将在一套嵌套的空间和时间尺度上研究湖泊及其周围环境的模式，过程和相互作用。这一全面的长期研究计划将产生重要的理解，湖泊，人类的相互作用，将有直接相关的政策影响到上五大湖地区的未来发展和提高其居民的生活质量。
