This project highlights the potential for LCCs to facilitate collaboration among conservation practitioners and research scientists to plan for the future. A team of UMass scientists is developing a landscape change, assessment and design model to assess ecosystems and their capacity to sustain populations of wildlife in the northeastern U.S. in the face of urban growth, climate change, and other stressors. The project plays a major role in developing the science and data for two collaborative landscape planning and design efforts: 1) the pilot Landscape Conservation Design for the Connecticut River Watershed, and 2) Nature’s Network, which expands and elaborates on the data to extend to throughout New England and...

The North Atlantic LCC and the University of Massachusetts Landscape Ecology Lab have a cooperative agreement under the Hurricane Sandy Disaster Mitigation Fund entitled Designing Sustainable Coastal Landscapes in the Face of Sea-level Rise and Storms.This project will add needed coastally relevant information to the Designing Sustainable Landscapes project. The index of ecological integrity, which is a major component of the NA LCC modeling framework, identifies places that are predicted to be able to sustain ecological functions over time. Two new stressor metrics, tidal restrictions and salt marsh ditching, will be developed and incorporated into the ecological integrity assessment. In addition, landscape capability...
