Abstract: Research infrastructures dedicated to long-term ecosystem research are important to support the assessment of the impacts of global change on landscapes, ecosystems and society. The European Long-Term Ecological Research Network (LTER Europe) is an initiative with the main objective of improving the understanding of the processes that shape ecosystems and socio-ecological systems under the influence of global change. In this paper we briefly present the twenty years of research since Slovenia joined this initiative and the main challenges and research activities carried out within the LTER Slovenia consortium.
