Description

Join the National Parks of Boston and Boston Public Library to learn more about the Boston Harbor Islands, from standing at the base of eroding cliffs measuring millimeter scale changes to live-trapping ‘gigantic’ mice on Bumpkin Island. Researchers are helping the National Park Service and park partners understand how the biodiversity and coastlines are changing in the dynamic landscapes of the Boston Harbor Islands. Learn about the wild and fascinating experiences of scientists on Boston’s watery edge and what their results are telling us.

This online program, co-presented by The National Park Service, will happen over Zoom webinar. We kindly request that people who are interested in attending please see the REGISTRATION REQUIRED box on this page for more information.
