2013 Science Needs Portfolio by Matthew Cimitile, last updated: Aug 21, 2015 01:36 PM: A group of over 150 invited researchers and managers representing a diverse cross-section of expertise and affiliations were assembled to identify the science information needs of Appalachia in order to effectively address the conservation challenges and opportunities across the landscape. The resulting comprehensive cataloguing or “Science Needs Portfolio” was developed to serve as a guiding framework, critical to help facilitate and support conservation planning, delivery, and applied research as well as monitoring efforts across the Appalachian LCC. It also compiles recommendations based on on-going or emergent needs and reflects completion of previously funded projects. In February 2013, almost 50 experts from a wide range of technical background in both natural and social sciences, as well as geographic expertise across the entire region, volunteered to participate in the annual review of the Appalachian LCC Science Needs Portfolio. 2013 marked the first revision of the Portfolio.

Forest importance to water supply by Caroline Dougherty, last updated: Aug 14, 2015 01:42 PM: The US Forest Service’s Forests to Faucets Project represents one approach to ecosystem service assessment. Watersheds are ranked in terms of both forest cover and the estimated number of people who rely on them for drinking water. This highlights the water filtration services that forests provide in different landscapes.

Forest above-ground biomass by Caroline Dougherty, last updated: Aug 14, 2015 01:42 PM: The Woods Hole Research Center’s National Biomass and Carbon Stock Dataset for the year 2000 represents an important component of carbon sequestration by Appalachian forests. The spatial distribution of this ecosystem service is influenced over time by drivers such as surface mining, urbanization, climate change, and forest growth.
