NRS Documentary


ANR Communications, based at UC Davis, worked with the NRS systemwide staff to produce a series of television programs on the NRS. These included a 7-minute overview of the entire system, as well as half hour programs on five individual reserves -- Coal Oil Point, Hastings, James San Jacinto Mountains, Landels-Hill Big Creek, and Sedgwick. Each program highlights the reserve’s natural features, its history, and current research programs. Originally aired via satellite on University of California Television (UCTV), the programs are now available in full via video-on-demand at UCTV’s web site, http://www.uctv.tv.



Sedgwick Reserve



At the University of California Natural Reserve System's (NRS) Sedgwick Reserve near Santa Barbara, UC researchers are delving deep into the earth to understand the microorganisms that support California's ecosystems and are working to preserve the state's disappearing oak woodlands and restore native grasslands. Local schoolchildren also visit the reserve as part of an innovative "Kids in Nature" science program.
