The founders' rock in James Reserve
The James San Jacinto Mountains Reserve, a unit
of the UC Natural
Reserve System, is a 29-acre (120,000 m2)
ecological reserve and biological field station located at an
altitude of 5,200 feet (1,600 m) in a remote wilderness
area of the San Jacinto Mountains in Riverside County,
California, United States. The James Reserve property
was purchased by the University of California Riverside in 1966
from Harry and Grace James.
In addition to acting as a protected natural area for teaching
and research in the sciences, it is also available as an
engineering testing ground for various sensor-related and ecosystem
monitoring technologies. The primary research group using the James
Reserve at this time is the Center for Embedded
Network Sensing. Over the internet, researchers, students and
the interested public may unobtrusively visit and view nature via a
webcam observatory, which includes an interactive robotic camera.
Devices in the outdoor laboratory allow non-intrusive,
around-the-clock monitoring.
The Director of the Reserve is Becca Fenwick, who is currently
working on her Ph.D. at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography,
University of California San Diego.
Overnight accommodations for researchers and school groups may
be made for the on-site Trailfinders Lodge. Visitation is by
permission only.
