Explore 46 places in a receipt-complete query snapshot of public NEON Plant Presence & Percent Cover data · DP1.10058.001 (CC BY 4.0), requested from 2013-01 through July 31, 2026; retained observations currently end in 2024. Built by Desert Data Labs; unofficial and not endorsed by NEON, Battelle, or the NSF.

What am I looking at?

The explorer follows recorded richness, composition, and relative cover across NEON's nested survey grains. Those records describe sampled plant communities—not productivity, total landscape diversity, ecological health, causal impact, or a management verdict.
