A workshop will be convened to discuss theoretical developments                 and methods of testing predictions between different spatial and                temporal scales.  The objectives of the workshop are to (1)                     foster increased interaction among scientist of different                       ecological disciplines who are actively working on extrapolating                information between spatial and temporal scales; (2) analyze                    recent theoretical developments; (3) present case studies                       demonstrating ecological processes for which the scale of                       measurement influences the interpretation; (4) discuss relevant                 mathematical, statistical, and geographical methods for                         extrapolating information across scales; and (5) identify                       critical needs for future research.  The results of the workshop                will be conveyed to the general scientific community through a                  summary report in the Bulletin of the Ecological Society of                     America and a special issue of Landscape Ecology that will                      contain papers discussing theoretical issues and case studies.                  It is critical that a concerted effort be made to develop new                   syntheses and define important research objectives needed to                    interface predictions, results, and data from different spatial                 or temporal scales.
