CERC Research Programs
The Columbia Environmental Research Center conducts environmental research; develops
natural resource inventory and monitoring tools; provides technical assistance, and information and technology transfer. CERC’s
scientific capabilities provides the foundation for a broad framework
to address current and emerging natural resource issues. In addition, CERC has a
unique capability for conducting both focused and large-scale multidisciplinary
studies of contaminated environments. The Center views contamination problems in
the context of multiple environmental stressors to understand how contaminants
move through the natural environment. CERC also identifies potentially sensitive
environments, and assesses the effectiveness of remedial activities. Emphasis is
on projects that integrate scientific disciplines on larger geographic areas.
