LTER based perspectives on analyzing microbial community structure, function, and process
Although the molecular revolution has provided a valuable window into microbial diversity and function it is often difficult to leverage sequence data to describe and predict microbial processes.&nWorking Group Reports Final reports: LTER ASM Microbial Working Group_Report.pdf Participant list: working_group_participants.xlsx Session: Tuesday September 1 - Working Group Session 4 Tuesday September 1 - Working Group Session 5 Room Assignment: Ruesch Auditorium - Hobbs (Capacity 50)
Engagement of Arts and Humanities in LTER Sites and Programs
Over the past decade a strong working group concerned with engaging arts/humanities in LTER site programs has emerged. We held workshops at the previous three ASMs, convened a workshop at ANDWorking Group Reports Final reports: Final report and participant list Participant list: Participant list.pdf Session: Monday August 31 - Working Group Session 1 Monday August 31 - Working Group Session 2 Room Assignment: Ruesch Auditorium - Sweet (Capacity 50)
Leveraging long-term data to advance metapopulation ecology
Since its inception nearly 50 years ago, the metapopulation concept has revolutionized the way ecologists consider the dynamics of populations and communities. Session: Monday August 31 - Working Group Session 1 Room Assignment: Emerald Mountain Glacier Basin (Capacity 90)
Water and ecosystem water use responses to climate change, succession, and land cover change at long-term ecological research sites.
This working group addresses the question of how climate change and variability contribute to ecosystem water use, and how these changes may interact with succession and land cover change.
