9634135 Gosz This project will support the Network Office for the Long-term Ecological Research Network to continue critical activities including communication, data management, data dissemination, and technological advances. The Network Office will form a consortium with the San Diego Supercomputer Center, the Santa Fe Institute, the Center for Microbial Ecology at Michigan State University, and the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis. The facilities and interactions with these institutions and centers will enhance the research and creative activities of the Long-term Ecological Research sites. The principal goals of the Network Office are to (1) facilitate communication among the LTER sites to encourage integration of data sets and data analyses, (2) enhance the interaction of the LTER Network with a broad group of disciplines outside of ecology, (3) promote and disseminate new technologies relevant to long-term ecological research, and (4) provide leadership in data management and data dissemination to the LTER community and other scientific communities. Long-term data are fundamental to understanding environmental systems and the management of our natural resources. The Long-term Ecological Research program provides a unique ability to generate this important information and the current LTER sites have provided many important contributions. The LTER Network Offices plays the very important role of catalyzing intersite activities that allow the individual sites to function as an integrated network. This network approach allows new knowledge to be generated from the individual sites in the form of comparative research, synthesis and expansion to regional scales. The collaboration of the LTER network with other international networks provides unprecedented opportunities to share information with international colleagues, develop exchanges of scientists and students. And develop a global understanding of our ecological systems.

该项目将支持长期生态研究网络的网络办公室继续开展关键活动，包括通信、数据管理、数据传播和技术进步。网络办公室将与圣地亚哥超级计算机中心、圣达菲研究所、密歇根州立大学微生物生态学中心和国家生态分析和综合中心组成一个联合体。与这些机构和中心的设施和互动将加强长期生态研究地点的研究和创造性活动。该网络办公室的主要目标是：（1）促进长期环境关系网站之间的沟通，以鼓励数据集和数据分析的整合，（2）加强长期环境关系网络与生态学以外的广泛学科的互动，（3）促进和传播与长期生态研究有关的新技术，以及（4）在数据管理和向LTER社区和其他科学界传播数据方面提供领导。 长期数据是理解环境系统和自然资源管理的基础。长期生态研究计划提供了一个独特的能力，以产生这一重要的信息和目前的LTER网站提供了许多重要的贡献。远程应急联系网络办公室在促进站点间活动方面发挥着非常重要的作用，这些活动使各个站点能够作为一个综合网络发挥作用。这一网络方法使得能够以比较研究、综合和扩大到区域范围的形式从各个地点产生新的知识。LTER网络与其他国际网络的合作为与国际同行分享信息、发展科学家和学生交流提供了前所未有的机会。对我们的生态系统有一个全面的了解。
