How do we measure diversity?
Species richness and evenness, forest structural diversity, animal wildlife indicators, and genetic diversity are all factors that we can measure.
One of the most fascinating ways to begin this project is by exploring life in hidden microhabitats, including underneath spider trees and high in tree-top branches.
More long-term studies can also begin, such as sample plots and species counts.
Imagine what unusual species you might find. Maybe even some new ones.
Most of the tools needed to undertake this project have already been donated. We really only need a tree caliper.
We seek volunteers to measure and record what we find.
You can volunteer for an hour or a few hours or more.
Estimated Budget: $300
Please make a donation
For a limited time we can match your donation dollar for dollar!
We have a drone with a camera and a USB endoscope, so we can look almost anywhere.
