26 Years of Vegetation Monitoring on Santa Cruz

For 26 years, scientists have returned to the misty highlands of Santa Cruz to track the impacts of the invasive quinine and of the management actions. The continuous control of invasive plants resulted in the remarkable recovery of endemic plant species, especially that of the iconic Miconia robinsoniana. This is the story of endurance, restoration, and how a long-term commitment can strengthen conservation actions to protect the Galapagos ecosystems.
