lter_sites

There are currently 28 field sites involved with the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) network. These sites occupy a range of habitats and were started / are renewed on site-specific timelines. To make this information more readily available to interested parties, this data object summarizes the key components of each site in an easy-to-use data format.
