Field inventory and monitoring

Repeated observation or sampling at a site, on a scheduled or event basis, for study and analysis. In general, this category excludes sampling programs in which materials are obtained in the field and brought back to a laboratory for study and analysis.

This category is also used for baseline characterization, field monitoring, field observation, inventory, reconnaissance, and river discharge monitoring.
