The Southern California Research Learning Center is one of 18 Research Learning Centers across the country. These centers strive to increase scientific activity in the national park system, to communicate research that supports stewardship and to make science part of the visitor experience. By working with a variety of partners, we aim to support science-based decision-making, increase science literacy and promote a conservation ethic within the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area, Channel Islands National Park, and Cabrillo National Monument.
