The Field Notes blog is a meeting ground for all those interested in northeastern National Parks. Established as part of a science communication summer internship program based at the Schoodic Education and Research Center in Acadia National Park, the blog seeks to build a community where researchers, staff, and writers in northeastern National Parks can present their observations on science and nature to a diverse readership. Blog posts will focus on the activities of National Park Service workers, entities, and programs in the Northeast, but they are meant to engage anyone interested in science and nature.
