to Apr 23, 2019 - 2:00 PM

Presenters:
Laura Lukens, Monarch Joint Venture National Monitoring Coordinator
Jennifer Thieme, Monarch Joint Venture Regional Monitoring Coordinator

Laura Lukens and Jennifer Thieme from the Monarch Joint Venture will discuss the goals, structure, and uses of the Integrated Monarch Monitoring Program (IMMP). The IMMP is a national initiative to capture information about both monarchs and their habitats across geographies and land use types. Data will be used to update population and habitat models, as well as inform how habitat conservation efforts may influence population and habitat dynamics. Viewers will learn how researchers, conservation professionals, and citizen scientists can use the IMMP to meet their own objectives and information needs.
