Mass Audubon Habitat Phenology Society

Mass Audubon Habitat Phenology Society in Belmont, Massachusetts is using Nature's Notebook to get the community involved in an effort to tackle climate change effects in an urban wildlife refuge. As part of our ecological management plan, we assess and monitor the well-being and state of our ecosystems, as well as manage them. With ongoing phenological data, we hope to ensure the long term health of our ecosystems, by monitoring trends and seeing how a changing climate will affect the species on site.
