National LTAR Working Groups

KBS LTAR scientists are engaged in national LTAR working groups and projects aimed at coordinating research efforts across sites to develop national strategies for the sustainable intensification of agricultural production. The core working groups focus on the Common Experiment and associated research. Working groups include:

  • Biology
  • Communications
  • Data Management
  • Eddy Flux
  • Information Management
  • Meteorology
  • Non-CO2 Gases
  • Remote Sensing/GIS
  • Soils
  • Water Quantity
  • Wind Erosion

Many shorter-term projects arise out of these working groups to conduct network-level science activities and address emerging challenges in agricultural ecosystems.
