I recall that the LTER site was in Marty's original list.
One other request - it would simplify updates immensely if we can include a
field for local-identifier (is NCO able to ignore it?)
using the SBC example again, I think it would look like this (pls confirm)
```
@mastersthesis{mastersthesis,
ltersite={NSF-LTER-SBC},
localidentifier={sbclter-bibliography-1246},
title={Establishing foraminifera based biofacies within shallow marine
deposits, Carpinteria Slough, CA. Implications for southern California
sea-level studies},
author={Bentz, M},
year={2016},
institution={University of California, Santa Barbara},
federal_support={unknown},
status={published},
peer_reviewed={unknown},
}
```
