Real-time Ecological Monitoring and Observation Technology
John Kim is going to talk about the development of the REMOT website. REMOT stands for Real-time Environmental Monitoring and Observation Technology, a system of hardware and software technologies that collect environmental information and deliver and display the data at real-time on the Field Stations Program website Speaker Bio:  John Kim, who manages the ecological data that flows in and out of the FSP reserves, creates database programs to store, document, distribute, and facilitate the use of ecological data by researchers. John has a B.A. in Computer Science from UCSD and a Ph.D. in ecological modeling at University of Massachusetts at Amherst. John's interests include ecological modeling of wildlife populations, forest growth, paleoecology, and watershed modeling.
