The RMRS Science Application & Integration
Program (SA&I) is a knowledge transfer unit that provides leadership for the
application, integration, and use of research and scientific information in
natural resource planning and management. A core goal within the program is
to deliver Forest Service research in its most effective manner.

The Rocky Mountain Research Station
consists of 14 research locations throughout a 14-state
territory encompassing the Great Basin, Southwest, Rocky
Mountains and parts of the Great Plains. The Station proudly
attributes its high achievement and grand contribution to
valuable science to its roughly 100 research scientists.
We administer and conduct research
on 14 experimental forests, ranges and
watershedswhile maintaining long-term databases for
these areas. We also oversee activities on more than 260 Research Natural Areasand lead ecosystem management and research partnership projects in Arizona, Montana, New Mexico and Nevada.

Research Natural Areas (RNAs) are part of a national network of ecological areas designated in perpetuity for research and education and/or to maintain biological diversity on National Forest System lands. RNAs are protected against human activities that directly or indirectly modify the integrity of their ecological processes. They may serve as controls for manipulative research elsewhere. For more information, links to RNAs and a description of allowable activities on RNAs and the procedures for individuals or groups interested in conducting Scientific Research on RNAs Visit the RNA Homepage.
