Tahoe Center for Environmental Sciences Tour

Tour of the Tahoe Center for Environmental Sciences at Sierra Nevada College Campus.  Wine & cheese available.  Spouses, Significant Others and prospective member guests welcome.  Great opportunity for dinner out with some Rotary friends on your own before the tour.

The Tahoe Center for Environmental Sciences (TCES) is a distinctive partnership between public and private institutions of higher education in two states. It provides a world-class center for scientific research in the understanding of alpine lakes and the preservation of the environmental quality of such important resources.

 

The facility provides an opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students to associate with and study under some of the leading scientists in the fields of environmental science and environmental policy. In addition, it is intended that this research facility, through the use of interactive research stations, will be a resource for the members of the Lake Tahoe communities.

Because of the synergistic environment that is being created, and the environmentally friendly quality of the structure, the Tahoe Center for Environmental Sciences is one of the most important venues in the world for the study and development of solutions for the problems created by developmental pressures on fragile ecosystems.
