Blueprint V 1.3 With Connectors and Hubs

This map shows the Main Conservation Layers (Priorities P1 and P2, and Connectivity - Hubs and Connectors) for Blueprint Version 1.3. P1 and P2 represent 'Highest" and 'High' Landscape Priorities, respectively. Blueprint V. 1.3 includes eleven Conservation Assets: nine terrestrial systems, and two estuarine: Coastal Uplands, Freshwater Aquatic (includes Lakes and Ponds, River and streams, and Springs), Freshwater Forested Wetlands, Freshwater Non-Forested Wetlands, Hardwood Forested Uplands, High Pine and Scrub, Pine Flatwoods and Dry Prairie, Working Lands (I and II), and the two estuarine resources - saltwater marsh and mangrove swamp. Additional Marine and Estuarine Conservation Assets are currently under development...

NatureScape Design_Landscape Conservation Design II Grouped Data

These datasets are products of Phase II of the Appalachian Landscape Conservation Cooperative’s (LCC) landscape conservation design (LCD) created by Clemson University as part of the LCC-funded project, “Interactive Conservation Planning for the Appalachian LCC”. The Appalachian NatureScape Design incorporates and models newly developed data and information from all Appalachian LCC funded research projects as well as key existing datasets from partners to produce a series of maps that integrate aquatic connectivity with terrestrial significant habitats to guide conservation planning and decision making.Conservation Planning, a process of spatially identifying and prioritizing lands and waters important for functioning...

Terrestrial Core and Connector Network, CT River Watershed

These datasets are a component of a complete package of products from the Connect the Connecticut project. Connect the Connecticut is a collaborative effort to identify shared priorities for conserving the Connecticut River Watershed for future generations, considering the value of fish and wildlife species and the natural ecosystems they inhabit. Click here to download the full data package, including all documentation. These datasets represents a set of terrestrial tier 1 core areas and the connectors between them, grassland bird core areas, and tiered core areas; in combination with the aquatic core areas, they spatially represent the ecological network derived from the CTR LCD project. Terrestrial Core and...

Terrestrial Core-Connector Network, Northeast U.S.

The Terrestrial Core-connector Network is one of a suite of products from the Nature’s Network project (naturesnetwork.org). Nature’s Network is a collaborative effort to identify shared priorities for conservation in the Northeast, considering the value of fish and wildlife species and the natural areas they inhabit. This product consists of two components: core areas and connectors. A number of additional datasets that augment or complement the core-connector network, including Road-bounded Natural Blocks that surround the cores areas and a set of Grassland Bird Core Areas, are also available in the Nature’s Network gallery: https://nalcc.databasin.org/galleries/8f4dfe780c444634a45ee4acc930a055.

Local Vulnerability of Conductance, CT River Watershed

This dataset is a component of a complete package of products from the Connect the Connecticut project. Connect the Connecticut is a collaborative effort to identify shared priorities for conserving the Connecticut River Watershed for future generations, considering the value of fish and wildlife species and the natural ecosystems they inhabit. Click here to download the full data package, including all documentation. This dataset represents the local vulnerability of conductance index, which reflects the likelihood of development occurring in places with high local conductance. Specifically, this index is computed as the product of the integrated probability of development between 2010-2080 and the local conductance...
