USDA. FS. Forest Health Protection.
Forests are complex ecosystems. They are constantly changing as a result of tree growth, variations in weather and climate, and disturbances from fire, pathogens, and other stressors. A huge number of insects and diseases have the potential to negatively affect tree species in the U.S.
The Forest Health Monitoring (FHM) Program produces annual national reports that present forest status and trends from a national perspective, introduce new techniques for analyzing forest health data, and summarize results from recently completed Evaluation Monitoring projects funded through the FHM national program. The FHM tracks these ongoing changes — every year, across the nation — as a forest health check up. The annual reports contains short- and long-term forest health assessments for the continental U.S., Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Users can search reports and chapters by year (from 2001) or topic. Highlights and additional resources are also included.
USDA. FS. Rocky Mountain Research Station.
The National Genomics Center for Wildlife and Fish Conservation is a state-of-the art facility for advanced research providing expertise in DNA sequencing and environmental and forensic DNA sampling. Environmental DNA (eDNA) can be collected from bodies of water and offers great potential for monitoring and detecting species of interest. The Center is designed for cross-agency partnerships to provide cost-effective and reliable genetic and genomic data for species monitoring.

Northeastern Integrated Pest Management Center. IPM Insights (June 2021: Volume 18, Issue 1).
The National Integrated Pest Management Coordinating Committee (NIPMCC) has released a series of whitepapers explaining how pests threaten the security of the U.S. food supply, how an IPM approach offers the most effective means of managing pests, and why ongoing investment in IPM research and extension is critical to keeping pace with the ever-evolving nature of these threats. These new issue papers discuss role of IPM in combating resistance and invasive species, safeguarding food supply, and minimizing economic losses.
National Invasive Species Awareness Week.
National Invasive Species Awareness Week (February 24-28, 2025) is an international event to raise awareness about invasive species, the threat that they pose, and what can be done to prevent their spread. Representatives from local, state, federal, and regional organizations discuss legislation, policies, and improvements that can be made to prevent and manage invasive species via webinars. Across the country, partners hold public events to educate the public and elected officials about how they can help to stop the spread of invasive species. Register for free educational webinars on priority invasive species issues during NISAW.
National Invasive Species Awareness Week.
North American Invasive Species Management Association (NAISMA) and their partners seek to educate invasive species professionals, organizations, policy makers, and agency leaders across North America. Learn more about invasive species, their impacts, and proposed policy changes to strengthen invasive species prevention and management.
National Invasive Species Awareness Week.
National Invasive Species Awareness Week (NISAW) is a nationwide event to raise awareness about invasive species, the threat that they pose, and what people can do to prevent their spread. NISAW toolkit provides templates for sharing invasive species outreach with the local media as well as ideas for creative ways to engage your local community on invasive species.
National Invasive Species Awareness Week.
You can elevate the collective voice of the invasive species community and advocate for policies and legislation that aim to raise capacity for prevention, management, and research. Send a letter to your U.S. Representative and Senators advocating for funding and support to prevent and manage invasive species.
