Northern Ecosystem Research Initiative (NERI)

The Northern Ecosystem Research Initiative (NERI) is a scientific program focused on studying the Arctic and northern regions of North America. It aims to understand how these ecosystems function and how they are affected by climate change, human activities, and natural processes. By collecting data on wildlife, plants, soil, and climate, NERI helps researchers and policymakers make informed decisions to protect these sensitive environments. Overall, it contributes to a better understanding of northern ecosystems' health, resilience, and how they might change in the future, ensuring sustainable management and conservation efforts.
