Other names: LTER NIS Data Portal
The LTER Network Information System Data Portal contains ecological data packages contributed by past and present LTER sites. Data and metadata derived from publicly funded research in the U.S. LTER Network are made available online with as few restrictions as possible, on a non-discriminatory basis. The LTER is able to support high-level analysis and synthesis of complex ecosystem data across the science-policy-management continuum, which in turn helps advance ecosystem research.
