new project! come join us!
EREN is pleased to announce a partnership with the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) funded by the National Science Foundation to develop joint projects for flexible learning during the pandemic. We will develop collaborative ecological projects that link the EREN distributed collaborative research model with NEON’s continental-scale datasets so that students and faculty at multiple sites can collect data either on campus or in their own backyards while social distancing. The local datasets can be compared across sites or with broader regional patterns to answer real ecological questions while building students’ skills in data science.
The Backyard Pollinators project engages undergraduate students in courses that are remote or physically/socially distant in active research.
