Join us on October 1 to learn about ecological monitoring and its important role for successful restoration projects.
This webinar aims to help you skip the headache of technical jargon as it introduces ecological concepts in a non-technical way. It will cover different types and examples of monitoring programs and how they have been used in successful ecological restoration projects.
Held via Youtube live, this free presentation will run for 30 minutes, and will have time for Q&A at the end.
