Exactly what known species reside in the country's national parks? Who is tracking the trend toward resolving environmental conflicts through grassroots consensus-building? These questions and more can be answered online at the computerized UC Davis Information Center for the Environment. The center aims to serve people who make decisions about how California resources are managed, says center director Jim Quinn, a professor of environmental studies. Part of the global electronic network known as Internet, the center hosts innovative campus-based programs, such as the inventory of state watershed projects and the California Rivers Assessment. In addition, it provides perhaps the most comprehensive entry point to other sources of environmental information on the Internet, including government agencies, museums and conservation groups, according to Quinn. Some innovative UC Davis research projects at the center are transforming dry data tables into colorful maps and graphics that are easier for planners, policy-makers and the general public to read and understand. New and updated information is added daily. The center's Internet address via World Wide Web is http://ice.ucdavis.edu/; via Gopher, ice.ucdavis.edu.
