Give to the UH Coastal Center
The University of Houston Coastal Center is the only field station for the University of Houston and the only biological and environmental field station owned by any university within the greater Houston metropolitan area.
It provides a unique and essential facility for faculty doing biological and environmental
research and field education. The University of Houston Coastal Center gives scientists
access to an endangered natural habitat (pristine coastal prairie) within a large
area of land (925 acres) where equipment and experiments can be safely deployed. Boasting
over 200 acres of pristine coastal prairie, the field station is used for research
in grassland ecology, wetland ecology, invasive species, micrometeorology, air quality,
climate change, land subsidence, and geophysics. The facility supports graduate and
undergraduate education and public outreach through research projects, field courses,
bird surveys, and public tours.
Your gift will help support the wide variety of research projects and field courses at the University of Houston Coastal Center.
