Citizen Scientists of Alaska
Volunteer citizen scientists are encouraged to submit requests and photos regarding insects, plants or diseases in their local area. The information submitted is sent to a statewide team who will promptly respond with information regarding the sample. As needed, pertinent information can be sent to local or state land resource managers who may quickly respond to potential problems.
