The Circumpolar Biodiversity Monitoring Program, a cornerstone programme of the Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna (CAFF), Arctic Council working Group is an international network of scientists, government agencies, Indigenous organizations and conservation groups working together to harmonize and integrate efforts to monitor the Arctic&#39;s living resources.CBMP experts are developing four coordinated and integrated Arctic Biodiversity Monitoring Plans to help guide circumpolar monitoring efforts. Results will be channeled into effective conservation, mitigation and adaptation policies supporting the Arctic. These plans represent the Arctic&#39;s major ecosystems(Marine, Freshwater, Coastal, Terrestrial). <p>The Arctic Species Trend Index (ASTI) is part of a suite of indicators and indices developed by the Circumpolar Biodiversity Monitoring Program (CBMP). The CBMP is the cornerstone programme of the Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna (CAFF), Arctic Council working Group . It tracks trends in over 300 Arctic vertebrate species and comprises the Arctic component of the Living Planet Index. It is important to identify how wildlife and ecosystems are changing in order to develop effective conservation and adaptation strategies in the Arctic, an environment undergoing dramatic changes. The ASTI describes overall trends across species, taxonomy, ecosystems, regions and other categories.</p> 20,727 occurrences
