[LTER-education] April EOC meeting

[Stephanie Bestelmeyer]

Hi everyone,
You might want to check out EcoTrends (www.ecotrends.info <http://www.ecotrends.info/>).
It includes data from most LTER sites as well as other sites. This is the data source we use for our the high school division of our Desert Data Jam, and we do an in-class tutorial with teachers and students on their first use of the site. You’ll need to create a free login the first time you use EcoTrends. Please let me know if you have any questions.
