Vermont announces regional commitment to conserve forests across borders in face of climate change
A new resolution to conserve major multi-state and provincial forests and waterways points to existing partnerships like the North Atlantic LCC that sustain intact, connected natural landscapes in the region.

North Atlantic LCC Coordinator Andrew Milliken says farewell
As he prepares to transition to a new position with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Lake Champlain Fish and Wildlife Resources Office and Western New England Complex in October, Andrew Milliken reflects on milestones in his journey as the coordinator of the North Atlantic LCC.
Comings, goings, and new beginnings for North Atlantic LCC staff
In addition to the departure of LCC Coordinator Andrew Milliken, we would like to acknowledge a number of other big transitions for the people who make up the LCC team, including Coastal Resilience Coordinator Megan Tyrrell’s acceptance of a new position with Waquoit Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve starting in mid-October.

Synthesis of Thresholds for Coastal Species and Habitats
This tool is a compilation and synthesis of sea level rise and storm threshold data for 44 fish, wildlife, and plant species of conservation concern, as well as for four coastal habitats, organized into two tables. Users can search for a species or habitat of interest to see what threshold data, qualitative assessments, and/or research exist related to the threats from sea level rise and storms, as well as responses to management approaches. Of the species included in this table, 22 (50%) have quantitative threshold data available related to future sea level rise scenarios or storms that would compromise some aspect of their reproduction, productivity, or population. Thirteen species (30%) are projected to lose at least 50% of their population or habitat (e.g. foraging, nesting, spawning, or resting habitat) in certain areas with a 0.5 m or greater rise in sea levels. This information can be used by natural resource managers and others interested in learning about the threats from sea level rise and storms on vulnerable species and habitats and incorporating threats into restoration and coastal adaptation efforts.
