Niwot Ridge site, station C-1 Meteorological Station, study of air temperature (mean) in units of celsius on a yearly timescale

The EcoTrends project was established in 2004 by Dr. Debra Peters
(Jornada Basin LTER, USDA-ARS Jornada Experimental Range) and
Dr. Ariel Lugo (Luquillo LTER, USDA-FS Luquillo Experimental Forest)
to support the collection and analysis of long-term ecological datasets.
The project is a large synthesis effort focused on improving the accessibility
and use of long-term data. At present, there are ~50 state and federally funded
research sites that are participating and contributing to the EcoTrends project,
including all 26 Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) sites and sites funded by
the USDA Agriculture Research Service (ARS), USDA Forest Service,
US Department of Energy, US Geological Survey (USGS) and numerous universities. Data from the EcoTrends project are available through an exploratory web portal
(http://www.ecotrends.info). This web portal enables the continuation of data
compilation and accessibility by users through an interactive web application.
Ongoing data compilation is updated through both manual and automatic
processing as part of the LTER Provenance Aware Synthesis Tracking
Architecture (PASTA). The web portal is a collaboration between the Jornada LTER
and the LTER Network Office. The following dataset from Niwot Ridge (NWT)
contains air temperature (mean) measurements in celsius units
and were aggregated to a yearly timescale.

EcoTrends项目由黛布拉·彼得斯博士（乔达纳盆地长期生态研究网（Long-Term Ecological Research, LTER）、美国农业部农业研究局（USDA-ARS）乔达纳实验牧场）与阿里尔·卢戈博士（卢奎洛长期生态研究网（Long-Term Ecological Research, LTER）、美国农业部林务局（USDA-FS）卢奎洛实验林）于2004年发起创立，旨在支撑长期生态数据集的采集与分析工作。本项目属于大型综合研究计划，核心目标是提升长期生态数据的可获取性与应用价值。当前共有约50个由州级及联邦政府资助的研究站点参与并向EcoTrends项目贡献数据，其中包含全部26个长期生态研究网（LTER）站点，以及由美国农业部农业研究局（USDA-ARS）、美国农业部林务局（USDA-FS）、美国能源部、美国地质调查局（United States Geological Survey, USGS）及众多高校资助的各类站点。EcoTrends项目的数据可通过探索性网络门户（http://www.ecotrends.info）获取。该网络门户搭载交互式网络应用程序，可支持用户持续开展数据整合与数据访问工作。作为溯源感知综合跟踪架构（Provenance Aware Synthesis Tracking Architecture, PASTA）的组成部分，持续进行的数据整合工作通过手动与自动两种处理模式完成更新。本网络门户是乔达纳LTER与LTER网络办公室的合作成果。本次提供的尼沃特岭（Niwot Ridge, NWT）数据集包含以摄氏度为单位的年均气温测量数据，且已被聚合至年度时间尺度。
