IMMERSION: Exploring Rocky Mountain National Park’s Living Lab
In this episode, recorded on location, we’ll discover a side to Rocky Mountain National
Park that most people don’t even know exists. Beyond the beautiful mountains and
trails, the park is a Living Laboratory of science with about 100 scientific projects
happening at any one time. Some of the most cutting-edge ecology, biology and
conservation in the world is being done right here.
Rocky Mountain National Park may feel isolated from the cities and industry of the
plains, but it’s not. It’s part of inter-connected system in which every piece is dependent
on one another. And to understand how that works, and why that’s important, we’re
going to hike up to more than 10,000-feet to one of the most remote research stations in
the country to find out about an experiment that has been going on in the park for more
than 38-years. It’s one of the longest running ecological research studies in the world
and it’s changing the way we understand the park, the plains and even our own
relationship to the wild places we love.
