Since its founding in 1969, Manomet’s research has explored biodiversity and climate change from the Arctic to Tierra del Fuego, from tropical forests of Central America to boreal forests of northern New England and Canada, and from the ocean to the uplands. Over its 50+ year history, Manomet has published hundreds of peer-reviewed articles, many in leading journals including Ornithological Applications (formerly The Condor), Science, and Biological Conservation.
