The Long Term Italian Network (LTER-Italia) is a network of terrestrial habitats, river basins, transition and marine waters, where long term researches are implemented (up to 10 years). 25 sites (up to 2015) are distributed in the national territory monitored by the most important national research Centres. LTER studies the dynamics and the evolution of the ecosystems, the relationships between biodiversity and ecological functions, the water quality, the productivity, the resource availability and the effects of pollutions and climate change.
