Northwest Research Station provides
scientific information to land managers, policymakers, and citizens.
The
Station has 11 locations in Alaska, Oregon, and Washington and
about 500 employees. Our mission is to generate and communicate
scientific knowledge that helps people understand and make informed
choices about people,

 1980-2010:
Thirty Years of Science and Learning at Mount St. Helens
On May 18, 1980, after weeks of tremors,
Mount St. Helens erupted spectacularly and profoundly changed
a vast area surrounding the volcano. In the three decades
since the catastrophic eruption, PNW Research Station scientists
have used the volcano as a living laboratory for ecological
research. This year, 2010, marks the 30th anniversary of
the 1980 eruption and represents a key moment in the volcano’s
history. It is a time for scientists—several of whom
have dedicated their entire careers to studying the ecological
responses at Mount St. Helens—to synthesize and showcase
30 years of productive research and to plot the course
for the future. More
