Baltimore Ecosystem Study Gwynns Falls Watershed Wetlands for Baltimore-Long Term Ecological Research Network (LTER)

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR

The Gwynns Falls watershed wetlands for Baltimore city is part of the Baltimore Ecosystem Study (BES) project.

Description

The wetlands coverage has been clipped with the Gwynns Falls watershed boundary to show. The Baltimore Ecosystem Study (BES) aims to understand metropolitan Baltimore as an ecological system.

The program brings together researchers from the biological, physical, and social sciences to collect new data and synthesize existing information on how both the built and wild ecosystems of Baltimore work. As a part of the National Science Foundation's Long-Term Ecological Research Network, BES trys to understand how Baltimore's ecosystems change over long time periods. The ecological knowledge helps support educational and community-based activities, and interactions between the project and the Baltimore community are imporant components of our project.

Such an integrative project includes many disciplines and many research and educational institutions, both in Baltimore and beyond. This information was obtained in part from the BES Home page at ecostudies.org/bes/. BES is part of the Long Term Ecological Research Network accessible at www.lternet.edu.

Data are one of the most valuable products of the LTER program. The goal of the Network is to provide fast, effective, and open access to LTER data. Over 2000 ecological datasets are part of a network-wide information system designed to facilitate data exchange and integration to meet the needs of ecological scientists.
