20 years of LTER Slovenia
27 January 2025
A new paper briefly presents the twenty years of research since Slovenia joined the European LTER initiative and the main challenges and research activities carried out within the LTER Slovenia consortium.
The Slovenian LTER was founded in 2003 with the mission to establish a network of sites that would enable Slovenian scientists to address ecological issues on broad spatial and temporal scale in an interdisciplinary manner. In addition, the national network was aiming to create a legacy of well-designed and documented experiments and observations for future generations of society.
"With this article we celebrate 20 years of successful partnership of Slovenian researchers and their institutions who have joined forces to form the LTER Slovenia consortium and their active contribution to eLTER RI. With their research results and collaboration, they have built a stronger community and scientific network in the European Research Area. We are grateful for these two decades of LTER Slovenia and look forward to new research challenges."- state the authors.
