OverviewNational Park Service (NPS) managers need accurate information about how, when and why natural systems change over time in order to make sound management decisions. To address this need, the NPS initiated natural resource monitoring through the Natural Resource Challenge. The Inventory and Monitoring Program (I&M), the key component of this effort, organizes 270 park units into 32 networks tasked with conducting long-term 'vital signs' monitoring (Fancy et al. 2009). Vital signs are defined as measurable, early warning signals that may indicate change in the long-term health of natural systems. Early detection of potential problems allows park managers to take steps in restoring or maintaining the ecological health of park resources.
