National Ecological Observatory Network


Battelle has proudly managed the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) program for the National Science Foundation (NSF) since 2016.

NEON is the largest ecological observatory network in the U.S., with 81 field sites spanning the country from Puerto Rico to Alaska to Hawaii. The program collects ecological data for 30 years from terrestrial and aquatic field sites in 20 North American ecoclimate domains, creating an open access data trove for the ecology community of unprecedented scope and scale.

  • Access to biological, genomic and geological samples collected at NEON sites through the NEON  Biorepository 
  • Infrastructure to support additional research activities (available through the NEON Assignable Assets program)
  • Open access educational tools to help researchers and students work with large sets of ecological data
