File Alternatives for Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment Report to the Appalachian LCC
by Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment Research Team — published Nov 03, 2014 — last modified Aug 31, 2015 12:22 PM — filed under: , ,
How should the Appalachian LCC acquire information about the vulnerability of Appalachian species and habitats to climate change to share with its partners? This report summarizes the findings and recommendations of a seven-member Expert Panel that sought to answer this question identified as a major research priority. The Panel addressed three aspects of the question: the selection of species and habitats to assess, approaches to vulnerability assessment, and the availability of downscaled climate data.

Project chemical/x-pdb Data Needs Assessment
by Matthew Cimitile — published Jan 28, 2013 — last modified Dec 22, 2015 10:47 AM — filed under: , , , , ,
The Data Needs Assessment research project was undertaken to review the variety of resources on conservation planning to provide packages of products, data, and identified data gaps to improve conservation planning in the Appalachian LCC. A suite of core conservation planning products and data from principal investigators at Clemson University are now available to the Cooperative.

File Troff document Appalachian LCC Data Needs Assessment Final Report
by Trishna Dutta, Robert F Baldwin and Don Lipscomb — published May 20, 2014 — last modified Dec 21, 2015 11:25 AM — filed under: , , , ,
This project was undertaken to evaluate existing datasets for the Appalachian LCC region, package relevant datasets, review of some of the most commonly used conservation planning tools, provide interpretive text and graphics for datasets and tools, and identify data gaps that could improve conservation planning in the Appalachian LCC. Additionally, we reviewed and analyzed State Wildlife Action Plans (SWAP) from 15 states that intersect with the LCC, and corresponded with the SWAP coordinators to get their input on summaries and information on the upcoming 2015 revisions.

File text/texmacs Appalachain Landscape Conservation Cooperative GIS Datasets
by Data Needs Assessment Research Team — published May 20, 2014 — last modified Dec 21, 2015 11:18 AM — filed under: , ,
The Appalachain Landscape Conservation Cooperative Datasets are located in a folder named “AppLCC_USGS_ConicEA_Projection” and each theme has its own folder. Most folders have a layer file for displaying the raster datasets, however if there is more than one raster in the folder, it may be necessary to point the layer to the desired raster each time it is loaded. Also there are a few layer files and one geodataset (NWI) that will only work in ArcGIS 10.x. The layer file with the same name as the raster dataset should work in both ArcGIS 9.x and 10.x. In each case we attempted to download the latest (Spring 2013) revision of the dataset that completely covered the Appalachain LCC.

File C++ source code An Analysis of State Wildlife Action Plans in the Appalachian LCC
by Rob Baldwin — published Nov 03, 2014 — last modified Dec 21, 2015 11:26 AM — filed under: , ,
In this synthesis, we describe how the information contained in the individual State Wildlife Action Plans and conservation plans by other agencies can be linked together towards identifying opportunities to integrate state and local scale efforts into regional conservation framework for the AppLCC. Specifically, our aim was to quantify the objectivity and efforts across the 15 partner states. We are particularly interested in the commonalities of methodology and results across plans. Throughout the document, we integrate our previous efforts in this data needs assessment to figure out ways that state efforts can be upscaled to meet regional planning goals.

File List of Conservation Planning Tools, Functions, and Relevance to AppLCC Conservation Planning Goals
by Data Needs Assessment Research Team — published Nov 25, 2013 — last modified Dec 21, 2015 11:25 AM — filed under: , ,
The number of conservation planning tools and approaches is a growing and dynamic field of research. Here, we present description and evaluation of 21 conservation planning tools. To reduce the complexity of the conservation planning tools we decided to take a functional-grouping approach. These six groups are: reserve planning, habitat connectivity, species distribution modeling and viability, planning process integration, threats and climate change. To do the review, we used our own knowledge of conservation planning software and approaches, surveyed the literature for references to published programs, and searched the internet for emerging programs. We have condensed this information into a table (Table 1) and used it as a springboard for further exploration and discussion.

File Interpretive Text and Graphics for AppLCC Web Portal (conservation planning tools)
by Data Needs Assessment Research Team — published Nov 25, 2013 — last modified Dec 21, 2015 11:27 AM — filed under: ,
We have provided some interpretation material and text for conservation planning tools. These programs have been grouped into broad, sometime overlapping purposes. These brief descriptions of the various conservation planning tools can be put up on the AppLCC web portal, for users to get an idea about the tools available and what purposes they could serve. We have alo provided other links, where users can get detailed information about the tool.

Project application/x-internet-signup Assessing Future Energy Development Across the Appalachians
by Matthew Cimitile — published Nov 28, 2012 — last modified Nov 28, 2017 08:16 PM — filed under: , , , , , , ,
Assessing Future Energy Development across the Appalachian LCC used models that combined data on energy development trends and identified where these may intersect with important natural resource and ecosystem services to give a more comprehensive picture of what potential energy development could look like in the Appalachians. Ultimately this information is intended to support dialogue and conservation on how to effectively avoid, minimize, and offset impacts from energy development to important natural areas and the valuable services they provide.
