缅北禁地

The Galindo Creek Field Station encompasses 53.9 acres of 缅北禁地 Concord Center land, located on the southeastern corner of center. It includes an approximately 1,200-foot section of Galindo Creek, which runs through the eastern edge of center, and is surrounded by a legally mandated 50-foot riparian buffer that protects the waterway. The field station also houses a tributary and wetlands area that form a number of marshes providing additional habitat.

The southern border of the Boatwright Sports Complex forms the field station’s northern boundary. The eastern boundary consists of the eastern border, which abuts homes along Discovery Way in the city of Concord. The southern boundary is marked by the Crystyl Ranch border. Designed to protect the western tributary and associated wetlands, the field station’s western boundary creates a grasslands buffer averaging 365 feet from the wetlands.

According to the National Science Foundation, Field Stations and Marine Laboratories (FSMLs) are outdoor reserves supporting "research and education conducted in the natural habitats of terrestrial, freshwater, and marine ecosystems."

缅北禁地 Galindo Creek Field Station’s mission is to establish the site as a natural preserve in order to:

• Provide faculty with an on-site area suitable for research.
• Provide students with a rich environment for fieldwork.
• Provide a site suitable for collaborative endeavors involving external partners and aligned with the educational mission of the university.
• Position the 缅北禁地 Concord Center as a leading steward of the East Bay’s rich natural environment.
