The Western Ecological Research Center is the primary source to which DOI management agencies and their partners turn for research in the biological and physical sciences needed to support decisions by land managers throughout the Pacific Southwest. Center scientists are nationally-recognized experts on the ecosystems and associated species of the region and are the first choice of DOI clients to meet their information needs. The Center provides information in formats useful to managers, including peer-reviewed publications, technical bulletins, technical assistance, technologies such as Geographic Information Systems and distributed databases, and other forms.
