A major AWS outage caused disruptions across a lot of cloud-based services this week. Even though parts of Ecobot run on AWS, we’re proud to say we’ve stayed 100% up and running. We built Ecobot for resilience, so you can keep working, no matter what happens.

Did you become a field scientist because you love working outside, or because you love paperwork? Curious to try Ecobot’s tools for yourself? You can use them for free. ecobot.link/qcdtri1

Congratulations to David Jackson! His spine-tingling field find gave us chills in the best way. For uncovering the creepiest discovery of the season, David wins a free Ecobot Essential license for one year! Thanks to everyone who shared their eerie photos and field stories.

WOTUS may change, but wetland and stream functions do not. Field science is still the basis for understanding natural resource risk. Resources: Why OHWM matters: ecobot.link/83hkqhz OHWM Quick-Start: ecobot.link/px1ixgz Sackett and WOTUS context: tinyurl.com/wotus-ohwm

The Fall Release is almost here. We think you’re gonna love it.
