The CBMP Muskox Expert network is a collection of scientists and experts that advise on muskox-related monitoring and other requirements under the Arctic Terrestrial Biodiversity Monitoring Plan. This includes:
- identifying and recommending monitoring protocols, tools and approaches for monitoring and assessing muskox which lead to harmonized, integrated, robust circumpolar monitoring
- supporting open sharing of muskox monitoring tools and protocols
- contributing toward regional or circumpolar assessments of muskox abundance, distribution, demographics, health and other parameters
- acting as a forum for sharing information and expertise on muskox
- seeking funding opportunities, participating in grant-writing or other activities that can contribute to the mutual goals of the network and improve muskox monitoring and assessment +
