Patuxent Wildlife Research Center
-
Welcome to the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center established by President Franklin D. Roosevelt as the nation's first wildlife research station through an Executive Order in 1936. The research and wildlife conservation mission were created as the Patuxent Research Refuge and this relationship continues today as the close partnership between the U.S. Geological Survey and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. New directions in wildlife science that support adaptive management and structured decision making (SDM) have been developed by Patuxent scientists, and the Center has had a long history of research that supports endangered species recovery. Our vision and mission define our purpose and direction and working with our partners is our approach to ensuring relevant, high quality science supports society’s needs and our role as a Federal research institution.

Phase 1 Report: Conservation Planning and Design for Appalachian LCC PDF
-
Conservation planning is concerned with spatially identifying and prioritizing lands and waters important for functioning ecosystems and biodiversity. It is a science utilizing geographic information systems and large datasets to generate scenario-based maps of conservation potential. These scenarios can balance social, economic, and regulatory constraints with processes that occur over time and space. The planning process itself, as well as final products, helps practitioners prioritize where and when to take conservation action.

Phase I: Alternatives for Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment: Expert Panel Findings PDF
-
In 2012, the Appalachian LCC tasked NatureServe with a two-phase project that explores the understanding of climate change in the Appalachian landscape. The first phase focused on assembling a panel of experts to provide guidance on a) prioritizing species and habitats to assess vulnerability to climate change; b) selecting approaches to conduct vulnerability assessments, and c) identifying appropriate climate data to use in the assessments. Using the recommendations of the Panel, the second phase of the research conducted vulnerability analyses on selected species and habitats, and provided results within the context of other existing assessments. This report summarizes Phase I of this effort.
