The research and online mapping tool funded by the Appalachian LCC is part of The Nature Conservancy’s Development by Design approach. This approach brings sound science to reflect the big picture of current and future impacts of energy development on nature and natural resources across the Appalachians.

Full Proposal - A Stream Classification System for the Appalachian Landscape Conservation Cooperative
-
The goal of this project is to develop a hierarchical classification for stream and river systems within the Appalachian Landscape Conservation Cooperative (LCC). This classification system will identify and consistently map ecologically similar types of rivers and streams using a flexible hierarchical set of geomorphic and hydrologic variables deemed appropriate for classification by the participating states and relevant to the spatial scale of management.

Full Proposal: Assessing Future Energy Development Across the Appalachian Mountains
-
Scientists will employ land use change build-out scenaria for future energy development demand to quantify future impacts on forest habitats across the Appalachian LCC. We propose to create maps of wind, oil and gas, and coal development potential for the entire study area and use these maps and published projections from federal and state land management agencies to model future build-out scenaria.

Full Proposal: Interactive Conservation Planning
-
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.
