Vital Signs
|
Vital Signs (www.vitalsignsme.org) brings scientists and novices together to investigate species - particularly invasive species - in Maine. People can participate in many ways (see http://www.vitalsignsme.org/ways-participate ): going outside to look for and document invasive and native species with digital images, location and habitat observations; then entering their observations into our online application; and commenting on shared observations from the comfort of their own homes. |
