New Student Data Collection Website

We’re excited to introduce our new website!

One of the most effective ways to encourage the development of future scientists is to provide hands-on research opportunities for kids. Here at the Konza Prairie Biological Station we offer experiential activities that are based on the actual research done by site scientists. Students collect data that, taken collectively, show trends and responses to environmental cues. This website presents this student-collected data for anyone to access for their classroom or individual project.

Organized into Charts and Reports, any interested student, teacher, class or anyone else may view the results of several years’ worth of data collection by visiting classes to the Konza Prairie Biological Station.

Each report or chart offers multiple configuration options including search and filtering, grouping and summarizing results and export to a variety of formats.

We hope you’ll enjoy and take advantage of all this site has to offer for your individual and class projects or just browse through the data!

About KEEP

Konza Environmental Education Program Logo

Our goals:

  • To bring children to the tallgrass prairie to increase their understanding of this remarkable ecosystem and to instill a sense of place and pride in their environment.
  • To allow students to participate in hands-on ecological research to increase their knowledge of the scientific process and the significance of research.
  • To share with the public the latest scientific research and emphasize the importance of research in grassland conservation and management.

KPBS is operated as a field research station by the KSU Division of Biology. The station is dedicated to a three-fold mission of long-term ecological research, education, and prairie conservation. It is a unique outdoor laboratory that provides opportunities for the study of tallgrass prairie ecosystems and for basic biological research on a wide range of taxa and processes. The station is open to scientists and students from throughout the world.
