Availability of data is central to ECN's success as a resource for environmental research.  ECN makes its data accessible through a number of different routes, including web-accessible data interfaces. 
ic_photos.gif (2515 bytes) Site Resources
The ECN network comprises a range of terrestrial and freshwater sites across the UK.  Some sites provide excellent opportunities for field research, since they are well instrumented, with a wealth of historical data and have good access.  Please contact the sites directly (the contact information is available on each site page) or the ECN Central Co-ordination Unit if you would like to visit ECN site/s or use them for field research.
