National Plant Monitoring Scheme
Listing Details
'Plants are the foundation of our habitats and ecosystems. Unlike other species groups that have been monitored by citizens for many years, we have previously been lacking a good measure of changes in plant populations across the country ... NPMS aims to survey plant species across different habitats in the UK. The data collected from the survey allow us to look at the abundance and diversity of plants and help us to understand the health of different habitats ... Anyone interested in nature who can identify plants, or who is keen to learn, can take part.'
