"Climate Variability and Ecosystem Response at Long-Term Ecological Research Sites" is now available through Oxford University Press.

This volume is 16 years in the making according to editor David Greenland (Andrews LTER)."It’s roots are in the LTER workshop at Niwot Ridge in August 1988." The other editors are: Douglas Goodin (Konza LTER), and Raymond Smith (Palmer LTER).

Several years and meetings later, an outline was agreed upon and a Web page was set up to facilitate collaboration.

"People find the synthesis stimulating and thought provoking," says Greenland, following several public presentations of the final chapter of the book.
