Designation of essential fish habitat requires a detailed understanding of how species-specific vital rates vary across habitats and biogeographical regions.

Through a 2020 catalyst project, staff from the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources worked with ACE Basin NERR and U.S.

Project Lead Samantha Chapman (Villanova University) gives a 5-minute introduction to "Experimenting with Elevation: Building a New Collaboration to Explore Management Options for Wetland Elevation Maintenance," a catalyst project funded in 2020 by the NERRS Science Collaborative.

This instructional and informational webinar features background information on the 2020 science transfer Storm Stories project, how end-user feedback was incorporated, the tools and products that have been developed through the project, and how reserves can access resources.

This story map explores how boat wakes affect coastal vulnerability in small estuary channels in Florida's Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway.

This paper, published in International Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation, describes results of three different mangrove mapping methods to evaluate the impacts of Hurricane Irma, a Category 3 storm that affected southwest Florida in September of 2017. The approach was tested on a very high resolution WorldView-2 satellite image.

This project video illustrates how role playing simulations were used to foster dialoge around climate change callenges and opportunities in South Carolina.

This paper, published in Biological Conservation, describes an innovative approach developed by the NERRS to evaluate the ability of tidal marshes to thrive as sea levels rise.
