In collaboration with the National Park Service and Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) Program, the ESA is administering the Science Communication in the Parks (SCIP) initiative.
SCIP aims to support communication related to high-profile regional resource initiatives in Northeastern National Parks. SCIP offers Fellows the opportunity to produce two Science Communication products for a National Park site or a single lengthier product.
We are pleased to present the work of our SCIP Fellows!
