A cost-efficient approach to long-term monitoring is to focus on one species or group of organisms as indicators of ecological condition. Through the use of autonomous monitoring technologies, monitoring programs can efficiently expand the biological community surveyed and inferences made. Amphibians have been monitored in Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks by the Greater Yellowstone Inventory and Monitoring Network (GRYN) since 2006, yet other taxa dependent on wetlands have not been systematically studied. Our main aim was to explore what additional insights we could gain about wetland biodiversity by combining GRYN’s amphibian surveys with multiple autonomous technologies. We deployed wildlife cameras and acoustic recorders (for audible and ultrasonic sounds) at 4 permanent wetlands in Grand Teton National Park, WY during early and late summer 2017 and used descriptive metrics to summarize our findings. During GRYN’s surveys, 3 of 4 native amphibians were detected. With autonomous monitoring tools, we also documented avian and mammalian communities and detected changes in the degree of activity over the summer. Combining multiple, complementary technologies with field-based surveys provides a more comprehensive picture of wetland biodiversity and enhances insights about ecological condition and change.

一种具有成本效益的长期监测方法是将重点放在一个物种或一组生物体上，作为生态状况的指标。通过使用自主监测技术，监测计划可以有效地扩大调查和推断的生物群落。自 2006 年以来，大黄石清单和监测网络 (GRYN) 一直在黄石和大提顿国家公园监测两栖动物，但尚未对其他依赖湿地的分类群进行系统研究。我们的主要目标是通过将 GRYN 的两栖动物调查与多种自主技术相结合，探索我们可以获得关于湿地生物多样性的其他见解。我们在大提顿国家公园的 4 个永久性湿地部署了野生动物摄像机和录音机（用于听觉和超声波），WY 在 2017 年夏初和夏末，并使用描述性指标来总结我们的发现。在 GRYN 的调查中，发现了 4 种本地两栖动物中的 3 种。借助自主监测工具，我们还记录了鸟类和哺乳动物群落，并检测到夏季活动程度的变化。将多种互补技术与实地调查相结合，可以更全面地了解湿地生物多样性，并增强对生态状况和变化的了解。
