Introduced in 2024, the National Park Service Science Publication Series broadened the scope of NPS science publications to fields beyond natural resources. It replaced the Natural Resource Publication Series, whose 5,000+ reports are all still available. The Science Publication Series is managed by the NPS Inventory & Monitoring Division.
Science Report Series
The National Park Service Science Report series disseminates information, analysis, and results of scientific studies and related topics concerning resources and lands managed by the National Park Service. The series supports the advancement of science, informed decisionmaking, and the achievement of the National Park Service mission.
