Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A national network for ecosystem monitoring and assessment has been proposed to provide integrated ecological information for use in determining ecological consequences of various environmental stresses. In the Atlantic Maritime Ecozone, Kejimkujik National Park has been proposed as a candidate site for this network, since it is protected from development which may endanger long-term monitoring and assessment, is generally representative of the Ecozone, and has a key role in the acid precipitation monitoring network. This report discusses past, current, and future monitoring activity at the Park. The park site is described in terms of its spatial representativeness, science partnerships, and other aspects which suit its inclusion as part of a national ecosystem monitoring network. The appendix includes: a list of current research projects in the Park area; a brief chronology of Park events; and an extensive bibliography on the aquatic and terrestrial effects of acid precipitation.
