ST. LAWRENCE EASTERN LAKE ONTARIO PARTNERSHIP FOR REGIONAL INVASIVE SPECIES MANAGEMENT
The Invasive Species Volunteer Surveillance Network (VSN) is a community science initiative to enhance early detection efforts of priority invasive species in the St. Lawrence Eastern Lake Ontario (SLELO) region. Early detection is a term used to describe discovering invasive species populations in the early stages of introduction before population sizes become too large to manage.
