Riparian Restoration Decision Support Tool Fact Sheet
-
An innovative web-based tool - funded by the Appalachian Landscape Conservation Cooperative (LCC) and developed by researchers from the U.S. Forest Service and the University of Massachusetts - is allowing managers to rapidly identify high-priority riparian targets for restoration to make more resilient in preparation for changes in future climate. The Riparian Restoration Prioritization to Promote Climate Change Resilience (RPCCR) tool identifies vulnerable stream and riverbanks that lack tree cover and shade in coldwater stream habitats. By locating the best spots to plant trees in riparian zones, resource managers can provide shade that limits the amount of solar radiation heating the water and reduces the impacts from climate change. This well-established management strategy will benefit high-elevation, cold-water aquatic communities.

2015 Annual Report
-
The 2015 Annual Report details the investment the Appalachian LCC has made over the past years that led to the creation of vital research products, tools, and a landscape conservation design framework to address the most pressing science needs in the region. It also highlights the initial activities ensuring this science becomes integrated into planning and decision making at regional, state, and local levels to ensure key habitats and ecosystems are conserved in large, interconnected areas.
