About the Northeast Temperate Network

The Northeast Temperate Network (NETN) is one of 32 nationwide National Park Service inventory and monitoring networks. The purpose of the networks is to monitor the condition of a variety of vital park ecosystems.

NETN is responsible to a Board of Directors and Technical Committee composed of park superintendents and staff who participate on a rotational basis. Program guidance and oversight is provided by the National Park Service's Inventory and Monitoring Division. The network leverages staff and resources by engaging in a number of partnerships.

NETN's headquarters is located on the premises of Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park in the quiet hamlet of Woodstock, Vermont.
