Asia Center
The Asia Center now has its own website:
The Academy has a long history of research in Asia. Most notably, the Academy has conducted two recent and highly successful efforts in Mongolia: the Hövsgöl Long Term Ecological Research Site (ILTER) and the Mongolian Aquatic Insect Survey.
The successes of its work in Mongolia—and the pressing environmental challenges of economic development in Asia—have led to the formation of a new Asia Center at The Academy of Natural Sciences. Its mission is to foster environmental protection and sustainable use of resources in Asia through advancement and application of the natural sciences. More information about the center and its programs can be found at asia.ansp.org.
