Governance of the Coweeta LTER is vested in the Science Advisory Committee (SAC). Members are selected to represent the disciplinary and institutional breadth of the program due to their proven scientific expertise and their ability to make decisions in the best interests of the project. The SAC focuses on strategic planning and project direction while providing oversight on research program design, implementation and resource allocation. The SAC also makes project administration and staffing decisions.
