Central Appalachia Prosperity Project
by Matthew Cimitile — published Sep 22, 2016 — filed under: , , , , , , , , , , , , ,
The Central Appalachia Prosperity Project is part of the Presidential Climate Action Project to develop policy recommendations on climate and energy security, with a focus on what the next President of the United States could accomplish using his or her executive authority. The Central Appalachian Project draws on the input of America's most innovative experts to produce policy and program recommendations that are sufficiently bold to expedite the region's transition to a clean energy economy. An important component of these recommendations has been better coordination of the efforts being made by all levels of government - federal, regional, state and local.

Western North Carolina Vitality Index
by Matthew Cimitile — published Sep 22, 2016 — filed under: , , , ,
A tool developed to provide information necessary in protecting the region’s unique natural resources, promote development and planning that accommodates healthy growth, preserve the heritage and culture that defines communities, and strengthen public health to improve local economies. The Index was developed by University of North Carolina-Asheville National Environmental Modeling and Analysis Center from the result of a partnership between the US Forest Service, the NC Mountain Resources Commission, the Blue Ridge National Heritage Area, the Asheville Board of Realtors and Duke Energy. The current iteration of the index contains over 160 different data metrics for each of the western 27 counties in NC. The information is classified into natural, built, human and economic sectors. Data and maps can be downloaded, spatially examined, and compared with state and national averages. A map viewer function allows users to customize their own maps for specific reports, grant applications, and general education and various presentations.

National Heritage Areas in the Appalachian LCC
by Matthew Cimitile — published Sep 23, 2015 — last modified Oct 04, 2016 12:38 PM
The Appalachian LCC region contains many National Heritage Areas (NHA) that reflect the rich natural, cultural, and historic resources within our landscape. In total, 18 designated areas stretching from Alabama to New York tell the stories of individuals, communities, progress, war, and perseverance that highlight the distinct culture, history, and lands of the Appalachians.

Image Camera Trap Survey to Assess Whitetail Deer Population
by Matthew Cimitile — published May 06, 2016 — last modified May 17, 2016 07:49 PM
Many protected areas in the eastern US struggle with the issue of deer overabundance due to the lack of authorized hunting and the absence of natural predators such as wolves and mountain lions. Subsequent prob lems arise including habitat degradation, poor herd health, and increased negative human-wildlife interactions such as car accidents. Catoctin Mountain Park completed a deer management plan in 2009 incorporating a direct reduction strategy to resolve the white-tailed deer overabundance issue and have since seen positive results. Each year the population is monitored using spotlight surveys and Program Distance. In 2015, we implemented an additional eight week long, un-baited camera trap survey. Thirty-nine cameras (1/149acres) operated from mid-July through mid- September. Findings indicated that the park’s deer population was approximately 21 deer/mi2. We plan to compare these results with those provided by Program Distance to determine if this method of population monitoring will be considered in future years.

File Full Proposal: Interactive Conservation Planning
by Matthew Cimitile — published Dec 15, 2014 — last modified Feb 15, 2015 02:11 AM
Using available data and modeling approaches that are well represented in the literature, researchers will develop conservation planning models that include site selection, threats, and connectivity analyses. These draft results will be presented to Steering Committee and then informed and refined by their feedback and other stakeholders. After each round of feedback, a revised conservation scenario will be produced. Draft conservation scenarios and associated products produced by each of these feedback rounds will be supplied to stakeholders with supporting documentation. Following 2-3 such feedback loops, conservation planning map products will be posted on the Portal.
