Join NSRC Researchers at the 2026 Forest Ecosystem Monitoring Conference

ABOUT FEMC:

The Forest Ecosystem Monitoring Cooperative is a partner of the University of Vermont, various northeastern state agencies, and the USDA Forest Service. Their work aims to provide and expand knowledge and technology in the northeastern forest region. FEMC will be hosting their annual conference on November 13th, 2026. A number of NSRC members will be speaking about their work and we invite all who are interested to join us and many other students, researchers, and others interested in the northeastern forest ecosystem.
