Bobscapes: The Bobscapes Mobile App will help researchers better understand population dynamics and help managers direct resources for habitat work to the areas where those investments will be most effective in recovering the species. Additionally, for those interested, the app will connect landowners to technical experts who can make habitat recommendations and share information on voluntary cost share programs. Lastly, the data provided will assist wildlife biologists in creating a national habitat network of “Bobwhite landscapes” necessary to ensure this species persists for future generations!

The Literature Gateway: Forest managers, wildlife conservation groups, policy makers, and other stakeholders often need to review literature on forest bird-vegetation relationships to inform decisions on natural resource management or ecosystem restoration. The literature gateway facilitates the exploration of this literature, helping users find references on a diverse range of management-relevant topics that have been compiled by subject experts based on searches of >60 different sources spanning the past 50+ years.

FY21 WLFW-GWWA Project Boundary: Updated to include new priority areas in NY.

Deerfield watershed Stream Crossings Explorer: This tool helps you locate road-stream crossings based on your interests.

Massachusetts DER's Restoration Potential Model Tool: DER’s Restoration Potential Model (RPM) Tool displays information that can be used to evaluate the relative ecological benefit of removing any known dam in Massachusetts.

Coastal Resilience Maine: Allows users to explore barriers to aquatic connectivity — dams and road-stream crossings– and identify likely high priorities for removal or improved fish passage for different objectives as well as to run custom analyses.

Chesapeake Fish Passage Prioritization Tool: This tool evaluates and prioritizes dams and other in-stream barriers to aquatic organism passage to help inform aquatic connectivity restoration projects in the Chesapeake Bay watershed.

Freshwater Network Northeast Region: Northeast Aquatic Connectivity Project's Tool: Tool for assessing barriers to aquatic connectivity including dams and road-stream crossings.

New Hampshire Aquatic Restoration Mapper: Interactive viewer to explore stream crossing, flood hazards, and aquatic habitat data to identify restoration opportunities in New Hampshire Communities.

North Atlantic Aquatic Connectivity Collaborative-HUC12 Prioritization Tool: Helps identify subwatersheds that may have priority for field survey of crossing assessments.

NRCS Targeted Monarch Butterfly Effort: NRCS map of the targeted Monarch Butterfly effort: click to expand

Brook Trout Thermal Habitat Forecasts Catoctin Mountain Park, Maryland & Shenandoah Valley, Virginia: Users can zoom-in to an area of interest and then compare current conditions against various future scenarios (3 levels of air temperature change x 3 levels of GW sensitivity to air temperature change). The interpretation is simple: red sites are too warm (MWAT > 23 C) and blue sites have suitable temperatures.

Riparian Restoration Decision Support Tool: An innovative riparian planting and restoration decision support tool, this user-friendly tool allows managers and decision-makers to rapidly identify and prioritize areas along the banks of rivers, streams, and lakes for restoration, making these ecosystems more resilient to disturbance and future changes in climate.

North Atlantic Aquatic Connectivity Collaborative: The North Atlantic Aquatic Connectivity Collaborative (NAACC) is a network of individuals from universities, conservation organizations, and state and federal natural resource and transportation departments focused on improving aquatic connectivity across a thirteen- state region, from Maine to West Virginia.

Fish Habitat Decision Support Tool: This tool was created to provide resource managers and the general public with access to the extensive spatial data and results produced from multiple fish habitat assessments. Three main analytical tools (visualization, ranking, and futuring) are combined with intuitive base-maps and mapping features to allow users to explore the details of the assessments and perform subsequent analyses.

Brook Trout Conservation Portfolio and Range-wide Assessment: Interactive webmap and visualization tools.

Trout Unlimited Brook Trout Atlas: The following interactive atlases provide a means to explore mapped data related to brook trout populations, habitats, and threats in local watersheds and across their eastern range.

National Aquatic Barrier Inventory & Prioritization Tool: Improve aquatic connectivity by prioritizing aquatic barriers for removal using the best available data.

BirdLocale: USDA’s Natural Resource Conservation Service has partnered with the University of Georgia, Quail Forever, and state agencies to conduct an extensive study across 25 states of the USA to assess the impacts of management practices on the northern bobwhite population. As part of this project, biologists will be collecting field data like bobwhite counts, and percentage cover of different cover types (grass, shrub, forb, etc.). Apart from these human-collected data, these biologists will also be using Acoustic Recording Units (ARUs) to collect data on bird calls.
