Science Seminars and Data Skills Webinars

Data collection/vegetation monitoring at the site.

Join NEON for a public seminar series where scientists share their research, and new data skills webinars!

Science Seminar Series

NEON is organizing a monthly seminar series, with the overarching goal to build community among researchers at the intersection of ecology, environmental science, and NEON. Specifically, the series will: 

  • Highlight new findings and frontiers of ecology and NEON science 
  • Build a diverse and inclusive researcher community 
  • Showcase and catalyze partnerships 
  • Amplify resources and tools that enable cross-scale ecological research

You can nominate yourself or a colleague to give a future talk in the seminar series!
