Named after the Cumberland Mountains where LMU was founded, the 坎伯兰山研究中心 (CMRC) was established on our campus in 1990. It was intended to nurture a collaborative environment for research amongst faculty and students as part of a larger science education-oriented mission here at LMU, and ultimately to provide a wide range of research facilities, opportunities and resources to our faculty and student researchers alike.
The original idea was to make the most of our unique ecology here in southern Appalachia and the surrounding Cumberland Gap region. By working alongside an array of institutions and organizations (including state and federal agencies) our efforts expanded to include a variety of areas across the Southeastern U.S. 甚至进入了阿肯色州. The CMRC even started developing multi-national opportunities in Kenya, 泰国, 伯利兹和哥斯达黎加, 直到今天, continues to supply and facilitate regional, national and international opportunities for our students and faculty here at LMU.
自从它的起源, the CMRC has worked inn the area of species management and restoration (delisting of an endangered snail), even identifying new species (including slime molds and sponges). Ongoing endangered species projects have focused on the reintroduction of endangered mussels in the Powell River and observing efforts of an endangered species of tapir in Costa Rica. 有多个正在进行的项目, the CMRC has been actively promoting both faculty and student research efforts in conservation biology and ecology publications across mediums like scientific journals, conference presentations and various outreach and education opportunities across southern Appalachia.
