contribute data

A major goal of the marineID system is to serve as a repository for historical, current, and future invasive species data sets collected in the Gulf of Maine and Long Island Sound. To gain a complete understanding of marine invasive species distributions in this region, the system must rely on a wide array of coastal monitoring efforts. Project proponents are actively seeking contributors to the Marine Invader Database.

The marineID data entry template (MS Access) and a help tutorial can be downloaded by clicking on the links below. Data can be submitted to marineID by emailing completed forms to marineID@northeastans.org. All data will go through a series of quality assurance checks prior to posting to the web site. Please be sure to include complete metadata and contact information for your project.

We appreciate your help with this important effort. Please contact us with any questions or comments regarding the submission of data.
