General Information Courses We are still accepting applications for our summer courses! Instructors Application Links With the Wild Rockies Field Institute students learn about environmental issues and the threats to specific ecosystems while traveling in the field. College credit is offered through the University of Montana. Course areas range from Alaska to Mexico. WRFI was founded in 1993 by several instructors at the University of Montana who felt that education about ecological processes and relationships, as well as land management policy and human relationships with the land, could be more deeply and honestly explored on site, in the field. We look forward to the coming year and invite you to join us for a different kind of academic adventure. Please choose from the options listed above to learn more about the Institute and the details of our courses. If you have any questions, or would like to receive additional information, feel free to call or send e-mail to wrfi@wildrockies.org Best wishes for a wild year!

The purpose of the project is to build through researcher contributions, a geographically integrated database with high quality metadata for characterizing and modeling ecosystem phenomena. The database, available on CD-ROM and on-line, currently contains over 30 global and regional datasets of multiple environmental and ecological factors. It is an on-going data integration and publishing effort that is currently working on its third database release.

RAINFORESTS Did you know the Strangler Fig is one of the best known of all rainforest plants. It actually grows around another tree - and may eventually kill its host. A FEMALE FIG-BIRD FEASTS ON RAINFOREST FIGS A strangler fig starts to grow when a bird or possum dropping, containing the strangler fig seed, lodges somewhere high in the host tree. If nutrients, water and sunlight are present, the seed germinates and soon sends long, thin roots down the trunk of the host tree to the forest floor. Once the roots reach the nutrient-rich leaf litter below, the strangler fig grows quickly. A network of roots envelops the host, and up in the canopy, the strangler fig begins to compete with the host tree for the precious light. In time, the strangler fig can grow to over 45 metres, and the host tree can be overwhelmed, and die. LARGE UPRIGHT LEAVES OF THE 'BIRD-NEST' FERN The bird's nest fern is another plant that attaches itself to a host, though, unlike the strangler fig, it doesn't present a threat to its host. The bird's nest fern is an epiphyte, a plant that grows on another plant, or a rockface, or even a solid enough vine, without taking nutrients from its host.

Home About ELC Site Map Contact Us ... Food Ecosystems An ecosystem is generally defined as a community of organisms living in a particular environment and the physical elements in that environment with which they interact. But where does one particular ecosystem end and another begin? An ecosystem can be as small as a field or as large as the ocean, depending on the scale that the researcher is examining. The borders of an ecosystem may be clear, such as a pond; other borders may be less easy to define, such as grassland that gradually changes into brush. Just as there is an immense diversity of individual species on the planet, so is there a rich diversity of ecosystems, from the icy arctic zones to tropical forests lush with plants and animals. Even the depths of the oceans, once thought to be barren, are now known to be teeming with living microorganisms and other life. There is much that remains to be discovered. Biologists do not know with any certainty how many species there are or even why some areas, such as the tropics, are richer in biological diversity than others. It is known that human activities, mostly unintended, threaten biodiversity by altering habitats and introducing non-native species. There is general agreement on the importance of protecting biological diversity, especially since humans depend on the services provided by living organisms and ecosystems. There is less agreement on the best approaches to conservation and how to balance preservation of habitats with meeting human needs.
