National Heritage Areas in Brief by National Park Service, last updated: Oct 08, 2014 11:08 AM: National Heritage Areas (NHAs) are designated by Congress as places where natural, cultural, and historic resources combine to form a cohesive, nationally important landscape. Through their resources, NHAs tell nationally important stories that celebrate our nation’s diverse heritage. NHAs are lived-in landscapes. Consequently, NHA entities collaborate with communities to determine how to make heritage relevant to local interests and needs.

Appalachian LCC Riparian Restoration in Action by Matthew Cimitile, last updated: Oct 07, 2014 11:43 AM: A user-friendly tool to address management needs was funded by the Appalachian LCC to allow managers and decision-makers to rapidly identify and prioritize areas along the banks of rivers, streams, and lakes for restoration, making these ecosystems more resilient to disturbance and future changes in climate.

Assessing Future Energy Development Across the Appalachians by Matthew Cimitile, last updated: Oct 07, 2014 11:08 AM: The rapid pace of new energy development coupled with more aggressive methods for extracting traditional fuels pose substantial risks to some of the Appalachians most cherished lands, waterways, and wildlife. Currently, little effort has been paid to the effect of energy development on the swaths of relatively intact, recovering forest habitat that define the Central Appalachian Region. This project employs land use change build-out scenarios from future energy development demand to quantify future impacts on forest habitats across the Appalachian LCC.
