I am a biological science technician focused on forest health and vegetation monitoring in eight National Park Service units of West Virginia and Pennsylvania. This monitoring is undertaken by an NPS group called the Eastern Rivers & Mountains Network; more information about us can be found here: https://www.nps.gov/im/ermn/index.htm


We partner with our parks to find and track nonnative species within park boundaries. Early detection and rapid response are crucial components of managing new and emerging invasions. You can find our invasive species iNat projects at the links below:
