*STS BLOGPOST* As part of my flurry of travel last semester I attended the Explore NEON Workshop at NEON’s headquarters in Boulder, Colorado. Looking back, I’m still shocked that so much information and guidance was conveyed in just two days! Myself and several other graduate students traveled to NEON, learned how to access and work with NEON data, and interacted with NEON science staff. I really enjoyed working with data alongside a group of ecologists/botanists/biologists/etc (no shade, statisticians, but ecologists will nerd out with me about nature AND data). <read more on @sweetteascience blog!> . . . #STEMblog #STEMblogger #NEONdata #exploreNEON #NEONscience #botany #plantsmakepeoplehappy #gradstudent #gradstudentlife #phdlife #womeninSTEM #workshop #linkinBio #ecology #ecologicalmonitoring (at National Ecological Observatory Network) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuUWkq0hoVX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6juax4130c5e
*NEW BLOGPOST* I am so tickled about the timing of our latest blogpost. I finally got around to finishing a recap of my #NEONdata workshop (it got pushed from peanut butter week ) and it happens that the same workshop is once more open for submissions! This time they’re going on the road so if folks at your institution are into amazing ecological data you’re in luck!
