Mediterranean Coast Network Vital Signs Monitoring Plan
Cameron JL, Sauvajot R, Kamradt D, Lee L. 2005. Mediterranean Coast Network Vital Signs Monitoring Plan. Natural Resources Report NPS/MEDN/NRR—2005/001
The parks of the Mediterranean Coast Network include some of the most significant examples of terrestrial Mediterranean-type ecosystems and coastal marine environments anywhere in the world. At the same time, the parks are embedded in the highly developed and rapidly expanding southern California metropolitan area. Consequently, each park experiences numerous ecological threats, including introduction of nonnative invasive species, declining fresh and marine water quality, fragmentation of habitat, altered fire regimes, etc. Amid these challenges, park managers must strive to understand and protect natural resources in order to leave them unimpaired for future
