Dam Removal to Help Restore Spawning Grounds
-
Under a bright sky here, a convoy of heavy equipment rolled onto the bed of the Penobscot River on Monday to smash the Great Works Dam, a barrier that has blocked the river for nearly two centuries.

Date set for historic Veazie Dam breaching
-
Mainers will have an opportunity to see some history in the making in July, when the effort to remove the Veazie Dam - one of the few remaining impediments to the return of native sea-run fish to the Penobscot River - gets underway with its initial breaching.

Decision Support Framework for Sea-level Rise Impacts
-
One of the principal impacts of sea-level rise will be the loss of land in coastal areas through erosion and submergence of the coastal landscape. However, changes vary across space and time and are difficult to predict because landforms such as beaches, barriers, and marshes can respond to sea level rise in complicated, dynamic ways. This project developed decision support models to address critical management decisions at regional and local scales, considering both dynamic and simple inundation responses to sea-level rise.

Decision Support Tool to Assess Aquatic Habitats and Threats in North Atlantic Watersheds and Estuaries
-
Through a stakeholder-driven process, the project team developed a multi-criteria decision support tool to allow resource managers to visualize and manipulate information on aquatic habitats and threats to prioritize areas for conservation action.

Designing Sustainable Landscapes Project Factsheet
-
The Designing Sustainable Landscapes project is a foundational part of a larger set of tools to guide conservative decisions in the face of change. Designing Sustainable Landscapes builds upon and incorporates existing information for the Northeast such as consistent habitat classifications and maps of all the habitat types in the Northeast, as well as climate data and wildlife population data. With these tools, conservation managers will be able to make more informed conservation decisions about where and how much land protection and habitat restoration and other conservation actions are needed to sustain wildlife populations in the face of predicted changes to the landscape.

Egg by egg, Department of Marine resources restoring Atlantic salmon to Maine Rivers (video)
-
State biologists working in shallow river tributaries reachable by dirt roads and snowmobile trails are on the front line of the battle against extinction of the Atlantic salmon. They visit the waterways in January and February, sometimes dragging their equipment on a plastic sled more than a mile to the sites, to mimic wild salmon spawning. They're planting thousands of eggs in the gravel of riverbeds, an effort mostly funded through a federal grant.
