Watershed Decision Tool Webinar Series (UPDATE)
-
The USFWS Southeast Region Office is sponsoring a webinar series on Watershed Decision Tools with the aim of promoting awareness of the many various watershed prioritization tools available to assist in planning conservation actions and fostering discussion about how each tool is or could be used, applicability and limitations, and possible future improvements and needs. We currently have 4 remaining webinars scheduled and hope to add more. We have switched to a new webex platform to enable recording and archiving of webinar presentations, so login details for the series has changed.

North Carolina Natural Heritage Program
-
North Carolina Natural Heritage Program's mission is to provide science and incentives to inform conservation decisions and support conservation of significant natural areas in North Carolina.
By gathering and sharing information about rare species and natural communities, the Program ensures public access to information that is needed to weigh the ecological significance of natural areas and to evaluate potential ecological impacts of conservation and development projects. The Program sits within the North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources.

Appalachian LCC Conservation Design: Phase 1
-
An overview of how this research developed a process of selecting priority
resources by using LCC technical input to build a group of candidate priority resources and include them in a spatial modeling process to produce a draft landscape‐scale conservation design; identified additional priority resources to include in future iterations of the conservation design; and built and acquired datasets, derived data modeling strategies needed to achieve first two objectives.

Interactive Conservation Planning for the Appalachian LCC
-
The Appalachian LCC is currently engaged in an effort to develop a draft regional conservation plan for the Cooperative using an interactive and iterative spatial prioritization framework. Using available data and modeling approaches that are well supported in the literature, researchers from Clemson University are developing conservation planning models that include site selection, ecological threat assessments, and broad ranging habitat and ecological connectivity analyses.

Floodplain Prioritization Tool
-
The Floodplain Prioritization Tool helps decision-makers identify critical opportunities for floodplain protection and restoration in the Mississippi River Basin. It is an interactive, web-based mapping tool.
Users can prioritize different criteria (e.g., water quality, wildlife habitat, and human exposure to flooding) on the map to see where floodplain restoration and conservation is likely to have the greatest impact. Developed by The Nature Conservancy and partners.
