By submitting everyday sightings of plants\, animals\, and other wildlife\, you’ll contribute to a global database that scientists around the world\, including those at Schoodic Institute and Acadia National Park\, use to monitor biodiversity. \nDuring this 2-hour program\, you will be introduced to iNaturalist and its role in citizen science efforts. You’ll learn the basic functions of the app on your smartphone and use it to engage in a bioblitz\, a community event where participants record as many species as possible within a specific area and time frame. \nFree to sign up! Please scroll down to register.\nThis program blends a mix of outdoor exploration with indoor classroom time. All outdoor activity will be on easy\, paved walking paths\, with optional off-trail activity based on participants’ comfort level. Please dress accordingly – we recommend sunscreen\, light layers\, and sturdy shoes. We also suggest bringing water\, snacks\, and your smartphone with iNaturalist downloaded (if possible); all other gear will be provided by Schoodic Institute. If you need to borrow a smartphone\, please indicate so during registration. \nPlease note\, this program is for ages 15 and up\, unless accompanied by an adult. For those under 15\, the ratio must be 1:1 with a parent/guardian over 15 years old.

This is classic\, unspoiled New England. Our partner\, Schoodic Institute at Acadia National Park\, is based near the tip of Schoodic Point\, feet away from the crashing surf. \nAcadia is home to a stunning diversity of wildlife. It is on a bird “superhighway\,” a route heavily traveled by birds that migrate between Canada and South America. Researchers have recorded 23 species of warblers alone here. The park’s lakes and coastal waters also provide a home for 30 fish species and a wide array of invertebrates\, such as sea stars and urchins. \nBut global changes–like warming temperatures and ocean acidification–are significantly impacting the park\, threatening the diversity of wildlife within. Acadia’s scientists have compiled over 120 years of detailed natural history observations to compare current patterns to. On this expedition\, you’ll help collect similar data that can be compared to this extended time-series data set\, revealing how a changing climate influences Acadia. Few places in the country have such a rich pool of observations to draw from and make comparisons to. \nJoin us in helping scientists tell the story of how humans are transforming Acadia. Your efforts will contribute to research to inspire management strategies to protect this unique and vital national treasure. This is your chance to impact the future of one of the nation’s most beloved parks. \nFind more information\, including registration and full daily itinerary\, here.
