Abstract:
To assist researchers and managers better understand vegetative changes in wetlands at Benton Lake National Wildlife Refuge (NWR), Grays Lake NWR, and Red Rock Lakes NWR, aerial slides from various sources have been digitized and made accessible via a World Wide Web server (http://swan.msu.montana.edu/nwr-slides/). This is a cooperative project between the Biological Resources Division of the USDI-Geological Survey and the Environmental Statistics Group of the Biology Department at Montana State University. Slides from Benton Lake NWR are vertical slides supplied by the USDA. Other slides are low-level obliques.
Purpose:
to assist researchers and managers better understand vegetative changes in wetlands in the Intermountain West
