Inventory and Monitoring Data Management Project

resources in order to 1. reach habitat objectives for wildlife, 2. make efficient management and resource allocation decisions, and 3. increase public access and hunting experience quality. Refuges often require data management support to steward and analyze long-term natural resource monitoring datasets in order to meet their needs. This award funds a collaboration with the California State University, Sacramento to provide student interns the opportunity to gain valuable applied skills while meeting high priority natural resource data challenges for refuges. Projects will directly support waterfowl habitat, endangered and threatened species, and water resources management.
