This announcement confirms that an award has been designated to the SERC Institute for their critical work in identifying species vulnerable to climate change at Acadia National Park. This grant is for a comprehensive project that extends beyond scientific identification. The SERC Institute will develop and communicate compelling stories about the local impacts of climate change on well-known species, crafting narratives suitable for articles, public presentations, and adaptation for websites, exhibits, and ranger-led programs. Additionally, the institute will provide access to significant historical data sources on their website. A core component of this initiative involves developing citizen science programs with standard protocols, designed to monitor climate-vulnerable species and effectively communicate climate change impacts to participants, fostering greater public engagement.
