Academy of Science- St. Louis BioBlitz at Forest Park

The Academy of Science - St. Louis BioBlitz is an exploration and inventory of the biodiversity of urban parks. On September 23-24, 2016, teams of citizen scientists led by biologists, naturalists and environmental enthusiasts will search the natural areas of Forest Park in St. Louis, Missouri, listing as many different species as they can find.

Environmental field experts and scientists from public, private and academic sectors lead teams of budding and experienced "citizen scientists" to explore and collect data on the biodiversity of Forest Park. "Everyone can be a citizen scientist," said Peggy James Nacke, BioBlitz Director, "students, individuals, and families. Come find out more about the creatures and botany that share the world with us. It's a fascinating and fun way to participate in important field research." menos ↑
