This Subcommittee was formed to help insure that effective and efficient integrated monitoring programs are in place, institutionally supported, and consistent with programs in Mexico and Canada. It is working to insure that monitoring programs are capable of determining status and trends of priority bird populations, as well as the limiting habitat and land use factors. The Subcommittee is currently working to improve the current state of priority population level data management systems.
