As described in our final report, the research conducted for this project had four primary components: • Extreme flows and land-use change in Maidstone Bends, Connecticut River, NH, VT • Climate change, extreme flows, and land use in Otter Creek, Connecticut River, VT • Effects of extreme events and river management on sediment and river habitats • Nutrient impacts in the Great Lakes and coastal New England. This data management report focuses on two of these components, the modeling of Otter Creek and the effects of extreme events and river management on sediment and river habitats. The work accomplished on the Maidstone Bends research was preliminary and less extensive than that performed on Otter Creek. The nutrient...

This project identifies opportunities to manage flows, connections, and landscapes to increase the resilience of human communities and ecosystems. This research identifies dynamic and adaptive solutions to managing river flows that allow continued provision of valuable infrastructure services such as flood control, hydropower, and water supply, while also supporting thriving river ecosystems - both today and into the future. The goals of the research were to: 1) Evaluate the potential impacts of climate change on hydrologic regimes, 2) Determine the flow regime changes that will be required to provide riverine environmental services and any risk associated with these changes, and 3) Explore management alternatives...
