Biological Regional Offices
The USGS has three regions: the eastern, central, and western. Regional Executives for Biology have offices located in Leetown, WV; Denver, CO; and Seattle, WA.
Biological Resources Science Centers
The USGS Biological Resources Discipline has science centers located throughout the United States. Typically, activities are closely aligned with the diversity of biological resources near each center.
Science center researchers represent a broad mix of scientific disciplines. Areas of expertise include aquatic systems (toxic material and other stressors), botany, ecosystem analysis and modeling, fishery chemistry and management, forest management, genetics, invertebrate zoology, museum curation, nutrition, statistical design and analysis, taxonomy and systematics, toxicology, urban ecology, and wildlife habitat evaluation.
Biological Resources Libraries
Biological Resources science libraries are located at many of the science centers. Holdings and services at each library tend to reflect the center's research specialties as well as the realization that high-quality science and biological resource management depend upon reliable access to a wide variety of information.
