Cedar Creek Ecosystem Science Reserve
Cedar Creek Ecosystem Science Reserve, Research facility and natural landmark in East Bethel, United States.
The Cedar Creek Ecosystem Science Reserve encompasses 5,400 acres of native upland forests, prairie, lowland swamps, and meadows containing 900 experimental research plots.
The University of Minnesota established this research center in 1942, which received National Natural Landmark designation from the National Park Service in 1975.
Scientists at Cedar Creek conduct studies on plant competition, biodiversity, carbon levels, nitrogen pollution, and ecosystem changes through multiple long-term experimental projects.
