Video: Intro to the Landscape Partnership Workspaces
-
The Landscape Partnership workspaces provide online infrastructure and space for partners to share their
expertise with one another, exchange resources and ideas, and plan work together on a certain species, a
given habitat, or a specific project. Workspaces make it easier for partners to share expertise with one another. Any file type or file size can be
shared and organized here online -- such as scientific studies, spatial data, images, podcasts, training
modules, surveys, links, and videos.

Working Lands for Wildlife (WLFW) Workspaces
-
The Working Lands for Wildlife (WLFW) program develops win-win approaches with producers
and private landowners. WLFW partners understand that collaboration is critical to enhance
wildlife habitat and improve agriculture and forest productivity.
We can continue to strengthen collaboration -- especially between technical experts from
federal and state agencies and non-government partner staff -- through the WLFW workspaces.
The WLFW workspaces provide online infrastructure and space for partners to share their expertise with one another, exchange resources and ideas, and plan work together on a certain species, a given habitat or land use, or a specific project. A subset of the resources here are available to producers, landowners, and communities who are interested in, or involved with, the WLFW program.

Climate Change Vulnerability Assessments Project Update
-
This presentation from Lesley Sneddon of NatureServe provides an update to the Steering Committee on a Appalachian LCC funded research project. Research is compiling climate change vulnerability assessments and other relevant information on vulnerable species and habitats, discerning the various methodologies and criteria used in these assessments, and using a team of expert peer reviewers to recommend the most efficient, effective, and appropriate methods for adoption by the Appalachian LCC for conservation and adaptation planning. The recommended method will then be deployed, resulting in vulnerability assessments for a suite of key species/habitats selected in consultation with partners of the Appalachian LCC.

Riparian Restoration to Promote Climate Change Resilience in Eastern U.S. Streams
-
This presentation from Jason Coombs of the University of Massachusetts provides an update to the Steering Committee on this Appalachian LCC funded research project. The Riparian Restoration to Promote Climate Change Resilience in Eastern U.S. Streams is developing and implementing a user-friendly web-based tool to identify priority areas for riparian restoration in the context of predicted climate change at the appropriate scale needed by practitioners. A ‘shovel ready’ prioritization tool for managers facing immediate on-the-ground decisions will be developed. Then research will link directly to ongoing and future stream flow, temperature, and biological response modeling projects and decision support tools.
