Sizing up conservation planning
Through an integrated program of information management, science delivery, and collaborative design, the North Atlantic LCC is supporting conservation actions at multiple scales across the region.
2014 Stream-Smart Road Crossing Field Training Workshops Oct 23, 2014 from 09:00 AM to 04:00 PM Whitefield ,
Maintain fish and wildlife habitat while protecting roads and public safety. Prepare for the large and frequent storm events that have been washing out roads around the state and the northeast.
Regional Conservation Partnerships explore landscape conservation design
A North Atlantic LCC workshop for Regional Conservation Partnerships (RCPs) - networks of conservation partnerships across New England and eastern New York - opened the door for increasing conservation design and delivery throughout the Northeast.
Looking for common language to integrate marine habitat data
The final report and maps are available for a North Atlantic LCC funded project that tested how a national framework for classifying estuarine and marine environments holds up at multiple scales, addressing the need for consistent data to inform marine conservation in the Northeast.
Fact Sheet: Aquatic Connectivity
Through companion LCC and Department of the Interior Hurricane Sandy Resiliency projects, the LCC is helping partners protect roads and improve fish passage by providing regional maps and condition assessments of road stream crossings, fish passage, future flood predictions, risk assessments, and prioritization tools. This information will enable states and communities to prepare for future intense storms, and improve conditions for aquatic organisms.
Fact Sheet: Connecticut River Watershed Landscape Conservation Design Pilot
The Connecticut River Watershed Landscape Conservation Design pilot is a collaborative effort to plan a landscape that connects large, natural areas in order to provide habitat for fish, wildlife, and plants, and protect natural benefits that sustain communities, such as food, clean water, storm protection, jobs and recreation
Connecticut River Watershed Pilot begins to visualize actions
Featuring more than 100 data sets representing a suite of habitats, species, ecological processes, and environmental conditions across the Northeast, the North Atlantic LCC's Conservation Planning Atlas offers an invaluable conservation resource for regional partners. Now the Connecticut River Watershed Pilot's Core Team is putting this tool to use by creating and comparing maps to inform the project's Landscape Conservation Design process.
Preparing for future storms in the wake of Hurricane Sandy
Three North Atlantic LCC projects funded through Hurricane Sandy Department of the Interior Resiliency Funds are underway and developing the science to help LCC partners understand how to make streams, beaches and tidal marshes more resilient to future storms and sea level rise. Here are some quick updates on these projects along with a summary of expected products:
Vernal-pool mapping workshop offers resources, and collaborators
The Mid-Atlantic Vernal Pool Mapping Workshop is a part of a regional effort to facilitate coordination in conserving critical habitat provided by temporary wetlands. Workshop participants will learn about existing vernal-pool mapping projects and resources, including a regional database of known and possible vernal pool locations available for viewing and download through the North Atlantic LCC Conservation Planning Atlas.
North Atlantic LCC works with states to identify Northeast conservation priorities
Rare habitat, contiguous landscapes, ecosystems threatened by development or climate change – at the fall meeting of the Northeast Fish and Wildlife Diversity Technical Committee in Blue Mountain Lake, N.Y., participants discussed a variety of critical factors that could and should be used for determining Regional Conservation Opportunity Areas (RCOAs).
Equipped with new data, partners guide evolving approach to conservation based on species' use of landscape
Partners in the Connecticut River Watershed Pilot are advancing the frontiers of conservation by designing a plan to achieve shared conservation goals across the watershed and region.
