Long-term Natural Resource Monitoring


The Northeast Temperate Inventory & Monitoring Network brings together National Park Service researchers, citizen scientists, and other organizations to monitor the ecological health of Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park and 12 other parks in the northeast. The wide-reaching, scientifically robust information gathered through these long-term natural resource monitoring projects are important to help park managers make better informed decisions, and in promoting research, education, and public understanding of park resources.
