La Dune de Bouctouche
Enjoy this cache location and the walk
to
it.
An important purpose of the Irving
Eco-Centre is to contribute to the scientific knowledge of
dune
ecosystems along the north Atlantic coast. Data is collected
regularly and assessed by the Eco-Centre's staff for various
research projects: dune monitoring and restoration; an insect
inventory; a butterfly count; a migratory shorebird survey; and
a
piping plover monitoring project. Geomorphology (the study of
the
forms and the evolution of the earth's crust's relief features
on
the Bouctouche spit) and ecodynamic mapping (mapping of the
dune's
plant environment) of the Bouctouche Dune are being carried out
by
the Université de Moncton.
