Exeter Carbon Observatory

Home

The ExCO is an open-air ecosystem laboratory, designed by researchers from the College of Life and Environmental Sciences at the University of Exeter, and funded by the University of Exeter’s Annual Fund. This initiative aims to allow students, academics and wider society to explore and learn about the role that terrestrial ecosystems play in removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and the effects of climate change on the stability of carbon uptake and storage in these systems.
