Association to Preserve Cape Cod Seeks Volunteers for Salt Marsh Monitoring Program

Plant Surveying Workshop in Brewster
GateHouse News Service, July 2, 2008

GateHouse News Service reports that the Association to Preserve Cape Cod is seeking volunteers for the sixth year of its salt marsh monitoring program. Volunteers will learn about salt marshes and monitor birds, fish, plants, and salinity at six sites from Sandwich to Orleans. Data “will be used to support state and regional programs that evaluate salt marsh conditions, identify restoration opportunities and assess restoration success.”

A training workshop on plant surveying is scheduled for July 15, 2008, at Stony Brook in Brewster. For more information, please check the Association to Preserve Cape Cod’s webpage about salt marsh monitoring.
