vision of the world is a complex web of information (data and metadata). Each set of information describes one or many components of our planet. As each piece is described independently, other pieces are interlaced into the view of many others.
Vision
Our mission is to share that information as is generated by the Research of the Luquillo LTER in a timely manner thus helping in the discovery of the relationships among these components.
