Natural Resources Program at Pohakuloa Training Area - Center for Environmental Management of Military Lands

CEMML is a research, education, and service unit within the Warner College of Natural Resources at Colorado State University. We apply the latest and most appropriate science to promote the sustainable management of natural and cultural resources on Department of Defense lands and public lands.

The project site is located in a unique area on Hawaii Island between Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, and Hualalai on Saddle road. With an elevation ranging from about 2500 feet to 8700 feet, the program manages for 26 threatened and endangered spcies and includes a portion of one of the last remaining sub-alpine tropical dryland forest in the world.
