National Inventory

Spatially continuous monitoring and inventories, including remote sensing, that completely census specific properties across a large region. Spatially subsampled surveys and monitoring that are designed to evaluate the status of a large region by sampling a subset of the total area. Intensive research sites that are selected due to their known ecological condition or suitability for experimental manipulation
