Join the new Macrosystems Ecology For All (MEFA) Research Coordination Network on April 4 at 11:00EST for a 90-minute virtual event (details here: https://erenweb.org/mefa-events/).
Are you interested in macrosystems ecology? Would you like to explore how to use publicly available large datasets in your classroom, and/or to tackle macrosystems research questions? Do you want to learn about how to get involved in new collaborative macrosystems ecology research alongside your undergraduate students? If so, then this event is for you!
You will hear 4 macrosystems ecologists (including NEON's Claire Lunch) share their projects and details about useful datasets, engage in thinking about what types of datasets may be most appropriate for your research topics of interest, and learn all about the MEFA RCN and their upcoming in-person meeting.
The Macrosystems Ecology for All (MEFA) Research Coordination Network is a diverse and welcoming community for faculty in teaching-focused positions to gain the training necessary to become full participants in macrosystems science. The MEFA RCN enables collaborative, multi-institution projects that address macrosystems questions, use existing environmental datasets, and serve as vehicles for teaching undergraduate students macrosystems concepts and data science in a supportive environment focused on diversity, equity, inclusion and justice.
