Long Term Ecological Research (LTER), Jornada Basin Data Catalog

dataset
posted on 2024-02-20, 22:32 authored by Niall Hanan

This dataset links to the Jornada Basin LTER data homepage. The Jornada Basin Long Term Ecological Research Program (JRN LTER) has been investigating desertification processes since 1982. Jornada research topics include: desertification; nonlinear dynamics; threshold behavior; cross-scale interactions; cascading events; ecosystem indicators and vegetation dynamics; geomorphology and wind; ecohydrology; animal interactions; factors affecting primary production; animal-induced soil disturbances; direct and indirect consumer effects; vertebrate and invertebrate population dynamics; and grazing effects on ecosystem structure and function.

Intended use

The overall goal of the Jornada Basin LTER (JRN) program is to quantify the key factors and processes that control ecosystem dynamics and biotic patterns in Chihuahuan Desert landscapes. These landscapes are representative of many arid and semiarid ecosystems of the world where dramatic changes in vegetation structure and ecosystem processes have occurred over the past several centuries. These changes in ecosystem state are often interpreted as “desertification”, the broad-scale conversion of perennial grasslands to dominance by xerophytic woody plants and the associated loss of soils and biological resources, including biodiversity.
