Ecological monitoring is fundamental to our understanding of how ecosystem change impacts ecosystem health and biodiversity over time, and is essential for developing evidence-based policy and management. Participants will learn the common principles for developing successful and effective long-term monitoring programs specific to forest, aquatic, and wildlife monitoring. Using real-world scenarios, learners will examine the characteristics of successful monitoring from development through implementation, data management, and curation, and communicating outcomes to inform strategy adaptation from a variety of worldviews.
