The LTER Climate Committee met at the Mountain Research Station August 21-23, 1988 for a workshop on Climate Variabilities and Ecosystem Response. A variety of topics were considered at the workshop and participants were asked to specifically address the following questions during their presentations:

  1. What constitutes climatic variability and/or a climatic change at your LTER site?
  2. How might such changes affect the ecosystem at your site?

A publication will be forthcoming from this meeting. Plans were also made for producing a document on Atmospheric Chemistry and Deposition at LTER sites as well as a revision and extension of the Climate Description Monograph.
