  1. LTER Network Planning Grant:Status and Activities Mary L. Cadenasso University of California, Davis mlcadenasso@ucdavis.edu

  2. Phoenix, AZ Baltimore, MD

  3. Two Parts • ISSE: Integrated Science for Society and the Environment • LTER Planning Grant

  4. LTER Planning Grant • Decade of Synthesis • 10 year review • 20 year anniversary

  5. Goals and Objectives • Network level • Emphasize collaboration, synthesis, integration • Objectives • Cross site collaboration and interdisciplinary training • LTER network governance structure • LTER science into K-12 curriculum

  6. Geophysical Template COMMUNITY STRUCTURE Vegetation turnover time Trophic structure Microbial communities PULSES: Fire, drought, storms; dust events, pulse nutrient inputs; fertilization PRESSES: Climate change; nutrient loading; sea-level rise; increased human resource use Q1 ECOSYSTEM FUNCTION Flux, transport, storage, transformation, stoichiometry, productivity Q1: How do long-term press disturbances and short-term pulse disturbances interact to alter ecosystem structure and function?

  7. Geophysical Template COMMUNITY STRUCTURE Vegetation turnover time Trophic structure Microbial communities Q2 ECOSYSTEM FUNCTION Flux, transport, storage, transformation, stoichiometry, productivity Q2: How can biotic structure be both a cause and consequence of ecological fluxes of energy & matter?

  8. Geophysical Template COMMUNITY STRUCTURE Vegetation turnover time Trophic structure Microbial communities Q3: How do altered ecosystem dynamics affect ecosystem services? Q2 ECOSYSTEM FUNCTION Flux, transport, storage, transformation, stoichiometry, productivity ECOSYSTEM SERVICES Regulating: Nutrient filtration, nutrient retention, C sequestration, disease regulation; Provisioning: food and fiber production, Cultural: aesthetics & recreation Q3

  9. Socio-cultural-economic Template HUMAN BEHAVIOR Regulation Markets Migration Institutional Q4b HUMAN OUTCOMES Exposure risk Quality of life Human health Perception and value ECOSYSTEM SERVICES Regulating: Nutrient filtration, nutrient retention, C sequestration, disease regulation; Provisioning: food and fiber production, Cultural: aesthetics & recreation Q4 Q4a Q4: How do changes in vital ecosystem services feed back to alter human behavior?

  10. Socio-cultural-economic Template PULSES: Fire, drought, storms; dust events, pulse nutrient inputs; fertilization PRESSES: Climate change; nutrient loading; sea-level rise; increased human resource use HUMAN BEHAVIOR Regulation Markets Migration Institutional Q5 Q4b HUMAN OUTCOMES Exposure risk Quality of life Human health Perception and value Q4 Q4a Q5: What shapes human behavior with regard to ecosystems and how does this behavior feed back to affect ecosystem presses and pulses?
