General Interest Links (Hyperlinks)

These consist of links to web sites and pages that contain relevant information concerning the MOJN and associated parks. Relevant information here includes a wide range of subjects; arid/semi-arid lands, North American deserts (i.e. Mojave and Great Basin), real time subject materials (e.g. air quality, web cams, lake levels), relavent source materials (e.g. on-line databases, desert groups) and other materials.

As new websites become available or existing ones are updated the network will post the URL addresses to them here. Think of these as helpful or suggested links of interest to those working on natural resource issues, biological/physical/chemical/cultural sciences, or just general topics of interest to our area. If you discover a site that you feel would be helpful to be shared with others, please contact the network's data manager to have it included.
