identifies and responds to the natural resource needs of the National
Capital Region (NCR), located in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan
area.
What we do:
The CUE staff focuses on urban ecology
within the matrix of the region's nationally significant natural and
cultural resources. Through science, service, and partnerships, CUE
assists managers in understanding, protecting, and restoring natural
resources for future generations.
Challenges we face:
With the continued development and
population growth throughout the area, natural resources are fragmented
within urban and suburban landscapes, and are often highly impacted.
Our expertise:

manage, and support projects at both the national and regional level
through a professional interdisciplinary team that provides comprehensive
science and technical support to park resource managers.
The Center for Urban Ecology's

technical assistance and education for the preservation, conservation
and enhancement of park resources within urbanizing landscapes.
