note = "Funding Information: The authors would like to thank the Batsheva de Rothschild Fund for supporting the seminar and to the Ramat Hanadiv Nature Park for hosting it. Funding Information: The lack of integrative national-scale frameworks in Israel, and many other countries, led to the convening of a special “Batsheva de Rothschild seminar on coordinated approaches for studying long-term ecosystem responses to global change”, in the fall of 2013, at the Ramat Hanadiv Nature Park in Israel ( http://www.ramat-hanadiv.org.il/en ). The seminar, supported by the Batsheva de Rothschild Fund of the Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities, gathered international experts to discuss, and ultimately propose, a coordinated approach for a {\textquoteleft}National Platform for Long-Term Global Change Research{\textquoteright} in Israel. An Israeli program, in turn, can serve as a model for national-scale platforms, by virtue of Israel{\textquoteright}s location in a complex ecological junction spanning a relatively small spatial scale (Safriel ; Sternberg et al. ). This seminar generated a cluster of papers by seminar participants, their colleagues and researchers who could not attend, but are conducting research of a similar nature, which comprise the Special Section of the current issue of Oecologia.",
