December 1, 2006 | Public Programs

CitSci.org is a website supporting citizens who monitor invasive species. CitSci.org provides a mapping program that allows citizens, school groups, and professionals to enter invasive species observations into a global database. The observations are then used for natural resource management, scientific studies, and environmental education. CitSci.org offers an opportunity for students and volunteers to perform field studies that contribute to our collective biological databases.
