The mission of Northern Prairie Wildlife Research Center (NPWRC) is to provide the scientific information needed to conserve and manage the nation's biological resources. The Center's goals include the following: Evaluate responses of fauna and flora to natural and anthropogenic influences Develop tools for assessing status and trends of animal and plant populations Use integrated, long-term research to model linkages among ecosystem components Develop the biological knowledge needed to sustain and restore ecosystems Provide the scientific foundation for federal policies and management strategies related to natural resources Disseminate the latest in technical information and research findings to client agencies, conservation organizations, and others responsible for the management of our Nation's natural resources NPWRC strives for quality, integrity, and the credibility of its research. The company came to be on September 18, 1965. The Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife conducted research on waterfowl production, which established the Center. In November 1993, under the advisory of the NBS, the mission was broadened to include research on all biological topics of the Department of the Interior land-management bureaus. The strengths of the Center include a sound foundation established by past research findings. Website: "http://www.npwrc.usgs.gov/" [Summary provided by the USGS.]
