LCC-9: Designing Sustainable Landscapes: Assessment of Landscape Changes in the North Atlantic Landscape Conservation Cooperative: Decision-Support Tools for Conservation
Summary This project will assess the ability of habitats in the Northeastern U.S. to sustain populations of wildlife in the face of urban growth, changing climate, and other disturbances. Specifically, the project will predict the impacts of landscape-level changes (e.g., from urban growth, conservation programs, climate change, etc.) on the future ability of these habitats to support wildlife populations; target conservation programs to effectively and efficiently achieve objectives in State Wildlife Action Plans and other conservation plans; evaluate progress under these plans; and enhance coordination among partners during the planning, implementation and evaluation of habitat conservation through conservation design. RCN Topic: Regional Focal Areas Related Projects: Regional Focal Areas for Species of Greatest Conservation Need Based on Site Adaptive Capacity, Network Resilience and Connectivity (RCN2007-08), Geospatial Condition Analysis of Northeast Habitats based on the Northeast SGCN Habitat Maps (RCN2009-02), Assessing the Likely Impacts of Climate Change on Northeastern Fish and Wildlife Habitats and Species of Greatest Conservation Need (RCN2009-01), Vulnerabilities to Climate Change of Northeast Fish and Wildlife Habitats, Phase II (LCC-6).
