Juniper and oak forest the river side of the prairie, which lies on the bluffs of the Minnesota River Valley in south central Minnesota. Ancient limestone outcroppings, exposed by the powerful waters of the Glacial River Warren, are a notable feature of this prairie.

The focus of Prairie Plains Resource Institute is Western Panhandle-east central platte watershed Rainwater basin.

Introductory screen for the Len Webb Ecological Images Collection in Griffith University Library. These images depict a wide variety of native vegetation, fauna and landscapes, mainly in tropical and subtropical Northeastern Australia, and are of considerable historical value, as many of the sites have now been lost or have suffered disturbance of various forms.

Focus on issues that are likely to confront policymakers, the Center creates and fosters collaboration among industry, environmental organizations, academia, and government to produce solutions to environmental challenges.

A distinctive natural habitat, Agassiz Peatlands features black spruce muskeg, string bogs, richly forested swamps, peatland and wildflower-filled fens. The area closely resembles a prairie. There are no park facilities for visitors. Agassiz Peatland is best suited for nature walks and wildlife viewing.

The GPI is a partnership between NGOs, scientists, research institutes and the private sector that provides a means to identify, develop and fund projects essential to achieve the 'wise use' of peatlands globally. The GPI was formed in response to the Ramsar Guidelines for Global Action on Peatlands (GGAP) to 'foster national, regional and international partnerships of government, private sector and non-government agencies to fund and implement actions in support of such strategies'.

The main goal of the IUCN Water and Nature Initiative is the mainstreaming of an ecosystem approach into catchment policies, planning and management. IUCN members and partners recognise that the budget of the Initiative is small compared to the billions invested annually in water management by the private sector, governments and aid agencies.

The Peatland Ecology Research Group (PERG) was formed through the partnership of the university scientific community, the Canadian peat moss industry and federal and provincial agencies. Our common objective is the integrated suistanable management of Canadian peatlands. The research team is headed by Line Rochefort of Laval University (Quebec, Canada).

Amazonia Expeditions has the longest zipline canopy system in all of the Amazon. Guests are hoisted one hundred feet above the ground into a large, emergent tree. Then, strapped into a rapeller's harness, attached by carabiner to a tandem zip line of stainless steel aircraft cables, you are able to to travel through the air from one tree giant to another. The speed of one's flight can be controlled by the user to soar rapidly, slow down, or stop to take pictures. In all, several old-growth emergent trees are used, with wooden platforms to allow one to stop and rest, studying the tree top life.
