Video: Intro to the Landscape Partnership Workspaces
-
The Landscape Partnership workspaces provide online infrastructure and space for partners to share their
expertise with one another, exchange resources and ideas, and plan work together on a certain species, a
given habitat, or a specific project. Workspaces make it easier for partners to share expertise with one another. Any file type or file size can be
shared and organized here online -- such as scientific studies, spatial data, images, podcasts, training
modules, surveys, links, and videos.

Working Lands for Wildlife (WLFW) Workspaces
-
The Working Lands for Wildlife (WLFW) program develops win-win approaches with producers
and private landowners. WLFW partners understand that collaboration is critical to enhance
wildlife habitat and improve agriculture and forest productivity.
We can continue to strengthen collaboration -- especially between technical experts from
federal and state agencies and non-government partner staff -- through the WLFW workspaces.
The WLFW workspaces provide online infrastructure and space for partners to share their expertise with one another, exchange resources and ideas, and plan work together on a certain species, a given habitat or land use, or a specific project. A subset of the resources here are available to producers, landowners, and communities who are interested in, or involved with, the WLFW program.

WLFW Pollinator Conservation Series: Session # 8 Pollinators and Livestock Grazing
-
Session 8 of WLFW East Region Conservation Webinar series, presented by Jason Jones and Katrina Sims, Grassland and Grazing Coordinators in Ohio and Arkansas, respectively. This session focuses on grazing livestock with consideration of pollinators. This is the third of three sessions on “pollinator habitat” in the series. Topics covered include benefits of native grassland restoration, native grazing considerations for conservation planning, pasture conversion and establishment, and grazing strategies.

Introduction to the Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment Research Project
-
Climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies are dependent on the best available projections of how climate will change and impact a region’s natural and cultural resources. Understanding the vulnerability of various species and habitats within the Appalachian LCC to climate change is of critical importance. Identifying the most appropriate steps to acquire climate vulnerability information and then using this information to inform adaptation and mitigation strategies is a major research priority of the LCC.

Climate Change Vulnerability Previous Habitat Assessments
-
Research compiled the results of habitat assessments from five previous research projects. These include two projects in the Central Appalachian and Cumberland - Southern Appalachian portion of the LCC; habitat assessments completed in the North Carolina portion of the Cumberland - Southern Appalachian subregion; habitat assessments in the northeastern portion of the Central Appalachian subregion; and a draft assessment for a habitat in the Interior Low Plateau.

Climate Change Impact: Food Systems, Food Security, and Global Linkages
-
Food systems both impact and are affected by climate change. Emissions come not only from farming, but also from the processing, manufacturing, distribution, storage, sale, and preparation of food, and the disposal of food wastes. Likewise, climate change influences not just agriculture, but activities that occur throughout this larger system. In this talk, Dr. Peters will address the fundamental concepts of food systems and food security. He will explain how scientists estimate climate emissions from individual supply chains and from whole food systems. He will also consider case study examples of strategies for reducing emissions viewed both from the production and consumer ends of the food system.
