Key Deer NWR Habitats

Map of habitat classes within National Key Deer Refuge. Purpose: This dataset is designed to provide refuge staff and public volunteers a reference map of habitat classes within refuge lands in the lower keys in order to assist them in field related activities. Audience: NKDR Staff and Volunteers Scale: Refuge managed areas within existing refuge boundaries Accuracy: Accurate to 1:20,000 scale (not to be used for determining exact refuge boundaries) Source: Internal NKDR GIS database.
Key West NWR Lands

All refuge lands within Key West NWR boundary. Key West National Wildlife Refuge (Key West NWR) is among the first refuges established in the United States. President Theodore Roosevelt created the refuge in 1908 as a preserve and breeding ground for colonial nesting birds and other wildlife, during the period when widespread plume hunting was devastating bird populations throughout Florida. Key West NWR is west of Key West, Florida, and accessible only by boat. Key West NWR consists of the Marquesas Keys and 13 other keys distributed across over 375 square miles of open water. The refuge encompasses 208,308 acres of land and water, with only 1 percent (2,019 acres) being land. Most islands are dominated by mangrove plant communities. Exceptions are the hardwood hammock in the Marquesas Keys and the beaches and dunes there and on Boca Grande and Woman Keys. All islands lack freshwater and native, terrestrial mammals are absent. Purpose: This dataset is designed to provide refuge staff and public volunteers a reference map of refuge lands in the lower keys in order to assist them in field related activities.

Upper James Watershed Focus Area

The Upper James River Watershed was initially a priority area for several important species that occurred there. In November 2011, the strategic plan was reviewed and, as part of that process, we examined the original priority areas and the work we proposed/accomplished in each. As a result of that review and associated staff discussions, it was agreed that the Upper James River Watershed priority area would be removed from the plan because it was encompassed in the James spinymussel priority area and benefits proposed for the Chesapeake Bay would be reached through conservations actions in other priority areas (i.e., James Spinymussel, Northeastern Beach Tiger Beetle, Rappahannock River Valley National Wildlife Refuge).
Working Lands EEMS Model

Working lands, agricultural lands, ranches, farms and forests that support land-based livelihoods, are vital to provide food, jobs and resources to the region. Working lands represent a large portion of the Cascades to Coast study area and when managed sustainably can enhance habitat and connectivity for fish and wildlife species. Through collaboration with landowners, land managers, government agencies, and private industry across the ecoregion we can develop region-wide strategies that benefit species, the local economy, landowners and the environment. This dataset shows working lands value across the region modeled as areas with high ecological value, timber harvest, and big game recreation.

CP_Wetlands_v1

Hosted feature layer to be consumed by the "Can We Conserve Wetlands Under a Changing Climate?" story map. As the impacts of climate change amplify, understanding the consequences for wetland dynamics will be critical for their sustainable management and conservation, particularly in arid regions such as the CP ecoregion. However, the data to model climate impacts to wetland ecosystems has been hampered by the lack of accurate maps showing their spatial distribution and data on their historical hydrological dynamics. Though these data may exist for particular wetlands, there are no wall-to-wall consistent datasets of wetland location and long-term hydrological dynamics. Climate change has emphasized the growing need to plan conservation actions across large landscapes and at a longer-term time scales. As such, consistent datasets become critical to assess regional trends in wetland dynamics over time, including changes in wetland function. These assessments are necessary to understanding the full picture of wetland dynamics, and to develop – and achieve – conservation goals beyond “no net loss”. The intent of this project is to fill critical information gaps in support of wetland conservation efforts in the CP ecoregion under a changing climate. First, we will provide consistent, wall-to-wall data on wetland location, historical hydrologic dynamics, and projected climate change impacts on hydrologic dynamics. Secondly, we will work with managers in using these data to develop recommendations for climate-smart conservation of wetlands across the CP.

Area Of Interest: Count

The US Fish and Wildlife Service and partners at the Conservation Planning Institute and Ecotrust developed a "social network analysis" to demonstrate the breadth and depth of collaboration among conservation entities occurring in the region. The analysis is not comprehensive and is a snapshot in time (survey completed in 2017); however, it proves useful for depicting, for example, the number of organizations that have mutual area of interests within each watershed. The Social Network Analysis is an initial step to assess the relationships among key natural resource interests in the region. With this information, we regularly convene these organizations and other entities with conservation and working lands interests in the region to develop conservation strategies to address gaps in data, effort, connectivity, and landscape condition.
