TEMS Data Access

Data Availability: Data are available online. TEMS is a database on Terrestrial Ecosystem Monitoring Sites called T.Sites. Networks of cooperating T.Sites that have similar research interests are called modules. Data are available for the Biodiversity, Coastal, Forest, Hydrology, Mountain, and Satellite Modules.

Access the TEMS T. Sites Data

The Terrestrial Ecosystem Monitoring Sites (TEMS) database is an international directory of over 2000 sites (T.Sites) and 44 networks that carry out long-term terrestrial monitoring and research activities. The database is based on a core list of over 180 variables, and provides information on the "who, what and where" in long-term monitoring. Network and variable tables allow users to search quickly for information on T.Sites and specific variables. More than 120 countries are included in TEMS. It also provides a mapping tool to obtain information on certain T-sites based on their location.


T.Sites Registration

New T.sites can be registered:

Access the TEMS Modules Databases

Networks of cooperating T.Sites that have similar research interests are called modules and allow users to make specific searches for variables directly related to specific topics such as Biodiversity, Coastal, Forest, Hydrology and Mountain. The TEMS modules are: Biodiversity, Coastal, Forest, Hydrology, Mountain, and Satellite.
