Rocky Mountain National Park and Rocky Mountain Conservancy are co-hosting a virtual "Science Behind the Scenery" webinar series in lieu of the park's traditional Biennial Research Conference. Beginning on February 15, 2022, this webinar series will be taking place on Tuesdays from 11:00 am - 12:30 pm MST from February 15 to March 15, 2022. The webinar series will be available online via GoToWebinar.

Rocky Mountain National Park hosts one of the largest research programs in the National Park Service, with nearly 100 research permits active each year. Park research partners come from other federal agencies, the State of Colorado, and universities around the world.

Each webinar will focus on one resource topic. Researchers will present for 15 minutes each followed by a Question & Answer session during which time audience members can engage with presenters. A representative from Rocky Mountain National Park will be available to discuss applications of the research. Webinar topics include Visitor Use Management, Species Conservation, Riparian Ecosystem Restoration, and Fire and Forests.
