As one of the nation's oldest independent environmental research organizations, Manomet brings together environmental stakeholders-communities, individuals, universities, government agencies, and businesses- to develop cooperative, science-based policies and management strategies. Dedicated to conserving the natural world for the benefit of wildlife and human populations, Manomet's work encompasses ecosystem services, climate change, large-scale hemispheric migration networks, and conservation strategies for landbirds, forests, wetlands, and agricultural habitats.
