Links to previous programs about current and future UC Nature sites are available as well. Mapping the Future covers research into the lush forest ecosystem of Angelo Coast Range Reserve. In the Shadow of White Mountain is an Emmy Award-winning documentary about the hardy scientists who work amid the thin air of White Mountain Research Station in eastern California.
