UF/IFAS Center For Landscape Conservation And Ecology (CLCE)
https://clce.ifas.ufl.edu/
The Center for Landscape Conservation & Ecology conducts interdisciplinary research and provides science-based education on urban landscape practices to protect and conserve Florida's natural resources.

IFAS Pest Diagnostic Services
https://diagnostics.ifas.ufl.edu/
Given the enormous range of land over which Florida farms, forests, rangelands, and agriculture related facilities are dispersed, it is critical that we have a similarly widespread capacity to detect, diagnose, and respond to intentional and accidental introductions of plant diseases, insects, and other pests. UF IFAS has established the Florida Plant Diagnostic Network, a plant pest diagnostic and reporting system, which will help first detectors submit plant samples, images, and detailed crop information for pest diagnosis.
UF Invasion Science Research Initiative

The UF/IFAS Center for Public Issues (PIE Center) responds to the many economic, environmental and social challenges Floridians face by measuring knowledge, behaviors and attitudes of consumers and constituents. The PIE Center then shares its findings with stakeholders through educational outreach and training programs using cutting-edge technology.
