Cowles Bog
Cowles Bog is an 8,000-year-old fen in the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore, near Chesterton, Indiana. It is named for Dr. Henry Chandler Cowles who did his pioneering work in ecology and ecological succession here. His work brought international attention to the area which led to efforts to preserve the Indiana Dunes.〔〔 It was designated a National Natural Landmark in 1965.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.nature.nps.gov/nnl/site.cfm?Site=COBO-IN )〕〔 ==Preservation==
Dr Cowles had been writing papers on plant succession for several years based on research he did in the area before he was part of the 1913 International Phytogeographical Excursion which brought other international scientists to the site. Dorothy Buell founded the Save the Dunes Council which led to the purchase of the bog.〔Smith, S. & Mark, S. (2009).
