# RMBL Knowledge Hub

> Unified search platform for environmental research at the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory (RMBL) and Gunnison Basin, Colorado.

## About

The RMBL Knowledge Hub connects scientific publications, community documents, research datasets, and a knowledge graph of species, concepts, protocols, and places studied at one of the longest-running field biology stations in North America. The platform supports researchers, land managers, and community members working on environmental issues in the Upper Gunnison Basin.
