  3. The Network A new data resource—a national network ofintegrated phenological observations across space and time

  4. The Network Key Goal Understand how plants, animals and landscapes respond to environmental variation and climate change

  5. 2005 Start of Season (SOS) Mission Make phenology data, models, and related information available to scientists, resource managers, and the public Fires in western US

  6. Steve Ringman, The Seattle Times Mission Encourage people of all ages and backgrounds to observe and record phenology

  7. Strategic goals • Develop a national phenology information management system • Develop partnerships for implementation • Facilitate phenology science and research • Facilitate development of decision-support tools • Conduct and facilitate education and outreach • Develop a national phenology monitoring system
