The National Science Foundation (NSF) funds research at the HJ Andrews Experimental Forest through its Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) grant funding. The Andrews Forest has been funded by the NSF LTER program since 1980. LTER grants are six years in duration. Midway through the grant cycle, the NSF sends a panel to assess progress on the work proposed in the funded grant. The NSF midterm review features reports and field trips from our researchers, staff, and graduate students. The event is an opportunity for us to share our work and stories with NSF, and with one another. This gallery includes images from the 2017 NSF midterm review.
