Research
The Oxbow Meadows
canopy trail and associated access to forest canopy provides unique
research opportunities for both faculty and students. Special
programs are being designed to enable public school groups to actively
participate in collection of research data.
|
|
| Research themes can
focus on evolving ecosystems, introduced species, forest riparian zones,
and wetlands. Researchers using climbing gear can compare the forest systems at Oxbow to less impacted forests in similar
settings. |
| Columbus State
University's faculty and students will, with canopy research
opportunities, join an elite group of international canopy
researchers. The CSU program, already noted for providing
international educational experiences, will have new opportunities to
take research skills and techniques to other canopy facilities around
the world. |
