At Cuyahoga Valley National Park, an inventory of streams and their inhabitants is helping park managers understand and protect these vital waterways. The study revealed that most streams in the park are in good condition with minimal habitat damage. For the few streams facing challenges, conservation and restoration initiatives will help restore them to high ecological quality.

Planning and Conducting a Small-scale Bioblitz Event
- Type: Article
Large-scale BioBlitz events are not feasible for most NPS parks. The Heartland Inventory and Monitoring Network developed a guide to planning and conducting a BioBlitz event at small and medium-sized parks that focuses on a few understudied taxa groups or habitats and can accommodate up to 40 volunteers. BioBlitz events help bridge the gap in natural resource knowledge at a park and inspire future park stewards. Read the guide here.

Heartland Network scientists monitor deer at Arkansas Post National Memorial using nighttime spotlight surveys. We track deer populations to understand how these charismatic animals may be changing over time. Too many deer can cause increases in disease, damage to park landscapes, and collisions with cars. Our monitoring information helps park managers protect deer, other animals, park habitats, and people.

Birds are an important part of the world we live in. We have surveyed birds for 23 years at Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve to determine the health of bird communities and park ecosystems. Knowing how birds are doing can help the park take effective steps to restore and maintain the beautiful landscapes at the park.

Vegetation Community Monitoring at Homestead National Historical Park
- Type: Article
The Heartland Inventory and Monitoring Network has sampled permanent monitoring sites in three vegetation community types (restored prairie, successional forest, and bur oak forest) at Homestead National Historical Park.

Across the US, changes in water availability are altering which plants grow where. These changes are evident at a broad scale. But not all areas experience the same climate in the same way, even within the boundaries of a single national park. A new dataset gives park managers a valuable tool for understanding why vegetation has changed and how it might change in the future under different climate-change scenarios.

The Heartland Inventory and Monitoring Network has monitored deer at Pea Ridge National Military Park since 2005. Deer are charismatic creatures that were nearly extinct in the early 1900s. Now deer overpopulation is a significant problem that can lead to overbrowsing of park trees and other plants, increasing deer-vehicle collisions, and the spread of disease. We monitor deer to help the park make management decisions that protect deer, park ecosystems, and people.
