Description
Our remit is to ensure sustainable stewardship of the land and sea so that people and nature can thrive. It is our responsibility to see that England's rich natural environment can adapt and survive intact for future generations to enjoy.
The Long Term Monitoring Network:
The Long Term Monitoring Network (LTMN) is one of the ways in which Natural England understands the effects of climate change, air pollution and land management on the natural environment. It is a sister project to the Environmental Change Network (ECN). The ECN has 13 sites in the UK, which monitor lots of environmental and biological variables at high intensity. An Environmental Change Biodiversity Network (ECBN) was developed to monitor on many more sites, at lower intensity. The LTMN is England's contribution to the ECBN and includes 37 sites.
In March 2014 a collaborate agreement was set up between Natural England and the Met Office to provide meteorological data for long term biodiversity monitoring sites in England via a managed network of Automatic Weather Stations (AWS). The aim of the agreement was to improve our ability to monitor climate change and its impacts on biodiversity. The collaborate agreement ends on 30th June 2018 and we wish to continue collecting meteorological data from these sites until 31st March 2019 and beyond (subject to funding).
