Vital Signs

Vital Signs is a mix of students, educators, professional scientists, and citizen scientists from across Maine (now spilling into southern New England and New York). Participants of Vital Sign work together to collect, analyze, and share critical environmental information about freshwater, coastal, and upland habitats, and to create authentic learning environments for our next generation of scientists and active, aware citizens.
