Dear All:
Again this year, I am the Northern Massachusetts/Plum Island Coordinator
for Audubon's Climate Watch program. This program is designed to monitor
the health of individual species in our area to determine whether
populations are flourishing, holding steady, or declining. Species have
been selected based on several factors, including current populations, and
are being positioned as climate change markers.
The next Climate Watch period (there are two a year) is from May 15-June
15. This is a self-reporting program. Information is here:
https://www.audubon.org/community-science/climate-watch.If you email me
directly, I can send a PDF with more specific instructions. However, you
will find what you need to get started and get involved at this link.
The basic idea is that you can sign up for a particular area. Some areas
will already be selected, so you do not need to duplicate others' efforts.
In your selected area, you will then look for targeted species, record
these, and send a report. All instructions are at the above link.
