Arkansas Post National Memorial » Acoustic surveillance of bat populations in multiple Midwest parks » Document List
The objective of this research is to contribute to the general understanding of baseline bat population distributions in the following National Park Service-managed protected areas in the Midwestern United States: Arkansas Post NMEM, Buffalo NR, Hot Springs NP, Pea Ridge NMP, Effigy Mounds NM, Herbert Hoover NHS, Fort Larned Scott NHS, Tallgrass Prairie NPres, George Washington Carver NM, Ozark NSR, Wilson's Creek NB, Homestead NM, Pipestone NM. This information will be shared with managers across the region and park personnel at the included research sites. This knowledge will aid in developing outreach materials for each park, and maintaining up-to-date protocols for management of bat populations across the region.
