The Landels-Hill Big Creek Reserve

Situated on California's scenic Big Sur Coast, the Natural Reserve
System's (NRS) Landels-Hill Big Creek Reserve provides researchers
and students with a spectacular location to study nature.
Scientists use the reserve to track water quality, monitor fish
populations, and survey California's disappearing native
wildflowers. Students from UC Santa Cruz use the off-shore marine
reserve to test their underwater research skills, and grade school
students visit Big Creek to learn how animals adapt to their
environment. Series: "UC Natural Reserve System" [Science]
