The Northeastern and Upper Midwest Terrestrial Habitat Classification and Habitat Map Final Report
-
This document provides an overview of the methods and results of the Midwest phase of the classification and mapping project. (A similar effort for the Northeastern states was completed in 2008, with additional map edits occurring through 2012.) The classification and map seek a balance between the state-based habitat classifications and consistency across the region. This will assist conservation partners in working on common goals that cross state boundaries. Applications could include assessment of natural resource conditions and provision of ecological services, planning for habitat enhancements and restoration, or prioritizing investments in open space conservation. By updating the existing maps and classifications, with clear links to the multi-leveled US-NVC and Ecological Systems concepts, this product allows for map displays and analyses at varying levels of detail. The consistent classification and map will allow wildlife managers and foresters to better collaborate regionally to maximize the impact of their investments.

The Vulnerabilities of Northeastern Fish and Wildlife Habitats to Sea Level Rise
-
Sea level rise poses a major new threat to the conservation of important coastal ecological
resources in the Northeast and elsewhere. As yet, our ability to project habitat and species
vulnerabilities to this threat is constrained by methodological limitations and a lack of research.
Nevertheless, if we are to manage and conserve these resources, on which huge investments have
been made over the last few decades, it is vital that we begin to understand vulnerabilities and
the factors responsible for them. In this report we review the scientific literature to evaluate our
current understanding of the vulnerabilities of fish and wildlife habitats in the northeastern
coastal zone to sea level rise (SLR); identify the major sources of uncertainty; and suggest future
research that will help us continue to conserve these coastal ecological resources. Specifically,
we evaluate the extent to which existing studies, data sets and tools allow us to infer reliable
conclusions about the likely vulnerabilities and fates of coastal habitats for fish and wildlife, the
uncertainties that surround these conclusions due to the shortcomings of the existing datasets and
tools, and how future research and conservation activities might help reduce such uncertainties.
By bringing together the current scientific information on climate change and coastal ecological
resource vulnerabilities in the Northeast, this review is intended primarily for resource managers
who are charged with making practical decisions about land management.
