Workshop 1: Existing Monitoring Efforts

This workshop was co-organized by Sam Droege & Hollis Woodard, with a set of guest speakers who shared some lessons they have learned from their large monitoring efforts (including some non-bee projects and a UK pollinator monitoring project). Workshop discussions focused on the question, "What methods/infrastructure from existing monitoring efforts could be co-opted for a national native bee monitoring program?"

A summary of common themes discussed at this workshop can be found here.

The speakers were (links go to recorded presentations on our YouTube channel):
  • John Sauer and Sam Droege, USGS Eastern Ecological Science Center, on bird monitoring in the US
  • Karen Oberhauser, University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum, on the Monarch Larva Monitoring Program
  • Claire Carvell, UK Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, on the UK Pollinator Monitoring Scheme (PoMS)
  • Sam Droege, USGS Eastern Ecological Science Center, on developing a US National Native Bee Monitoring Plan
