Habitat Monitoring with the Monarch Joint Venture
June 17 @ 1:00 pm CDT
Explore how remote sensing is transforming monarch and pollinator habitat research in the Upper Midwest. MJV’s latest analyses assess variations in common milkweed and floral cover across diverse land uses and management practices, while comparing efficiencies between remote sensing and field-based monitoring. Discover how these tools can enhance your work and find opportunities to integrate them into your programs. Additionally, learn how MJV and Red Boot Ecology are advancing habitat restoration on Bureau of Land Management lands in California. This multi-year study has identified new milkweed populations and optimized seed collection and germination recommendations for heart leaf milkweed (Asclepias cordifolia) to support conservation efforts.
