Environmental Flows in the Northeast
-
“Environmental flows” refer to the quantity, quality, and timing of water flows necessary to sustain freshwater and estuarine ecosystems and the associated resources that people depend on. This document discusses opportunities for future LCC / NECSC involvement in environmental flows projects, including temperature monitoring, modeling and relationship to stream flow.

Forecasting Changes in Aquatic Systems and Resilience of Brook Trout
-
The objective of this project was to develop tools to assist managers in protecting and restoring streams for brook trout and other aquatic resources in the face of threats such as climate change and development. Deliverables from this project included models of stream temperature, stream flow, and brook trout occurrence for headwaters of the Northeast, including projections of the potential effects of climate change. The investigators worked closely with decision-makers such as state water resource agencies to ensure the tools are useful.

Grand Falls and Alewife Celebration (slideshow)
-
On June 5 a celebration at the Grand Falls Fishway was held, near the banks of the St. Croix River. The event was in honor of the reopening of all the St. Croix to the native alewives. Beginning in 1995, the Maine Legislature had closed the Grand Falls and other fishways to the alewives on the concern they might be adversely impacting the smallmouth bass, an introduced alien species.

Historic removal of Veazie Dam gets under way
-
When the project is complete, sea-run fish - such as salmon, sturgeon, alewives and shad - will have significantly improved access to about 1,000 miles of upstream habitat.

Identifying Important Migratory Landbird Stopover Sites in the Northeast
-
Dozens of species of landbirds, such as warblers, hummingbirds, and orioles, migrate through the Northeastern United States from their summer breeding grounds in the U.S. and Canada to their nonbreeding grounds as far south as South America. During the migration period, birds must find habitat where they can stop, rest and replenish their energy reserves. Conservation efforts are increasingly focused on identifying stopover sites that are important for sustaining migratory landbird populations. This project built upon prior work by the University of Delaware and USGS to use weather surveillance data and field surveys to map and predict important migratory bird stopover sites.
