Toolik Field Station Base Funding

图里克野外站（TFS）自1975年以来一直是北美北极地区的主要研究地点。关于北极陆地和水生生态系统的结构和功能，气候变化的影响以及对全球气候的反馈，我们所知道的大部分都来自TFS的长期、基于过程的生态研究。基于TFS的工作在生物体对北极的适应以及动植物分布和物候的种群水平变化方面取得了重大发现。由于北极的气候变化迅速，继续研究生态系统的响应和反馈机制是一个高度优先事项。这一需要和来自许多学科的科学家对使用TFS的持续兴趣预示着未来对TFS科学支持的稳定需求。TFS支持北极长期气象研究计划（LTER），北极观测网络计划（AON）项目，美国宇航局？北极北部脆弱性实验（ABoVE），地球镜可移动阵列，是国家生态观测网络计划（氖）的核心站点。TFS是欧盟赞助的北极陆地研究和导航国际网络（INTERACT）的创始合作伙伴，该网络将北极圈周围的实地站和生物实地站组织（OBFS）的一个分支联系起来。至少有993篇同行评议的期刊文章，161本书或书的章节和144篇论文和论文已经在TFS的研究基础上发表。

The Toolik Field Station (TFS) has been a major site for research in the North American Arcticsince 1975. Much of what is known about structure and function of arctic terrestrial and aquaticecosystems, effects of climate change, and feedbacks to global climate has emerged from longterm, process-based ecological research at TFS. TFS-based work has resulted in significantdiscoveries on adaptations of organisms to the Arctic and population-level changes in animaland plant distributions and phenologies. Because climate is changing rapidly in the Arctic,continuing research into mechanisms of ecosystem response and feedbacks is a high priority.This need and ongoing interest by scientists from many disciplines in use of TFS promise asteady demand for TFS science support in the future. TFS supports the Arctic Long-Term EcologicalResearch program (LTER), projects in the Arctic Observatory Network program (AON), NASA?sArctic Boreal Vulnerability Experiment (ABoVE), the Earthscope Transportable Array, and isa core site for the National Ecological Observatory Network program (NEON). TFS is a foundingpartner in the EU-sponsored International Network for Terrestrial Research and Monitoringin the Arctic (INTERACT), which links field stations around the circumpolar Arctic, and amember of the Organization of Biological Field Stations (OBFS). At least 993 peer-reviewedjournal articles, 161 books or book chapters and 144 dissertations and theses have been publishedon research based at TFS.
