Second LENS workshop held in Tennessee
From April 18 to 23, Andrew Elmore, Ann Foo, and Katie May Laumann facilitated the second Landscape Exchange Network for Socio-Environmental Systems (LENS) workshop in Knoxville, Tennessee. Hosted at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the workshop included hands-on data tutorials and talks on remote sensing, archetype analysis, and stakeholder engagement. The workshop included two visits to National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) remote sensing sites, one in Great Smoky Mountains National Park, with history and background provided by National Parks Service researchers, and the second on the Oak Ridge campus. Participants also received tours of Oak Ridge’s supercomputers and historic graphite reactor. We look forward to seeing what everyone from the workshop does with what they learned!
