Northeast Chapter

The Northeast Chapter is committed to developing a robust connection between all Northeastern ecologists while expanding and promoting opportunities across disciplines, for our region and beyond. 

The Northeast Region of North America encompasses a large diversity of ecosystems, communities, and species. The Northeast showcases vast coastlines, diverse river valleys, unique marine environments, dominant mountains, and growing cities. As an area of North America most affected by a changing climate and high population density, it’s imperative the ecology of the region is well represented.

The Northeast Region is also home to leading research intuitions, numerous ecological research sites, as well as practitioners and policy makers at the forefront of environmental advancement. It is the purpose of this Chapter to connect ecologists across the region and serve as a platform to uplift academics and professionals in ecology. We aim to foster a diverse group that builds upon ESA’s missions and promotes ecological knowledge across the Northeast region.

The benefits of a chapter include:

  • A community of ecologists that can support each other, train the next generations of scientists, and share their knowledge with the public
  • A dedicated voice representing the Northeast Region and its members to the ESA Council and Governing Board
  • Dues money for projects and activities that benefit members of the region as determined by the chapter members
  • Providing a platform to maintain the collective knowledge of ecologists across the local knowledge providers, professional ecologists, and academics of the Northeast region.
  • Foster an international connection between Canadian and U.S. ecologists
