Project Restoring Coal-Mined Lands to Create Habitat for Imperiled Birds
by Matthew Cimitile published Jul 02, 2013 last modified Aug 27, 2014 01:38 PM — filed under: ,
AMJV and the Appalachian Regional Reforestation Initiative are partnering up to re-establish habitat on previously mined land to create greater breeding grounds for declining bird species in the Appalachian Region. Using ARRI’s Forestry Reclamation Approach, this collaboration is replanting trees on disturbed sites in heavily populated bird areas to restore the function and form of habitats that existed prior to mining.

Conservation Priorities Science Needs Workshop
by Matthew Cimitile published Sep 07, 2012 last modified Aug 21, 2015 01:37 PM — filed under: ,
The Conservation Priorities Science Needs Workshop took place on November 29-30, 2011 in Blacksburg, VA. 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 “Portfolio” of science needs will serve as a critical guiding framework to help facilitate and support conservation planning, delivery, and applied research and monitoring efforts across the Appalachian LCC.

Project Environmental Flows from Water Withdrawals in the Marcellus Shale Region
by Matthew Cimitile published Nov 28, 2012 last modified Jul 13, 2016 11:04 AM — filed under: , , , , , , ,
The Appalachian LCC collaborated with Cornell University to study the environmental impacts of water withdrawals in the Central Appalachian region. The rivers and streams of the Central Appalachians are home to more than 200 species of fish and other aquatic life. They also provide a reliable source of drinking water, recreational opportunities and associated economic benefits to people living in large cities and surrounding communities. This research looks at how the region’s surface freshwater supply – and the health of natural systems delivering this resource – have been impacted and may be altered in the coming years under increasing water withdrawals. It focuses on the Marcellus Shale region in the Central Appalachians, including portions of NY, PA, OH, MD, WV and VA.

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.

File Development of a Spatially Explicit Surface Coal Mining Predictive Model
by Michael P. Strager, Jacquelyn M. Strager, Wesley Burnett, Aaron E. Maxwell, published Nov 19, 2014 last modified Oct 18, 2017 02:32 PM — filed under: , , , , ,
The goal of this project was to create a spatially explicit 1km2 grid cell model for the Appalachian Landscape Conservation Cooperative (Figure 1) predicting where surface coal mining is likely to occur in in a projected future time period, under two different scenarios. To accomplish this goal we combined GIS spatial analysis, a Random Forests predictive model, and future mining buildout scenarios. This report provides a detailed methodology of our approach and discussion of our results.
