[LTER-All-lter] Funding Opportunity: LTER Synthesis Working Groups

[Marty Downs]

With 28 active research programs going back 40 years and more, the Long
Term Ecological Research Network (LTER) <https://lternet.edu/> has
generated a rich trove of data (including over 7000 publicly available long
term datasets housed at the Environmental Data Initiative (EDI)
<https://environmentaldatainitiative.org/>. To encourage reuse, synthesis,
and integration of these data, the LTER Network Office is funding 2-4 new
synthesis working groups for up to 2 years and up to $55K/year.

Proposals emphasizing LTER's core thematic areas
<https://lternet.edu/core-research-areas/> are encouraged, as are novel
applications of LTER data. Proposal PIs do not need to be current LTER
investigators, but synthesis teams should involve some LTER researchers and
must draw on data from at least 2 LTER sites.

Proposal deadline is *October 14, 2020*, with decisions in early January
2021.

Please circulate this announcement freely.
