The Wells National Estuarine Research Reserve (NERR) has been supporting Southern Maine ’s beach-based businesses by increasing their resilience to climate change.

Eleven projects have been recommended for funding by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ’s National Estuarine Research Reserve System (NERRS) Science Collaborative.

These slides summarize a webinar given by Sophia Paul, Katie Pritchard, Dr. Julia Wondolleck, and Dr. Chris Feurt on April 11, 2018. The webinar featured two University of Michigan master's students' research on conducting a situation assessment in order to assess residents' values and aspirations for the watershed, perceptions of issues, and interest in greater collaboration.

These slides summarize a webinar given by Cory Riley of the Great Bay Reserve on March 27, 2018 about her 2015 Integrated Assessment on vegetated buffer use in New Hampshire.

This lesson plan helps teachers and students understand the concept of blue carbon and the impacts of sea level rise on salt marshes.

This Plan is intended to serve as a guide for the towns of Exeter, Stratham and Newfields to support nitrogen load reduction, permit compliance, and ultimately ecosystem recovery in the Great Bay estuary which could fulfill permit requirements for a Nitrogen Control Plan.

This collection of resources from the Water Integration for Squamscott-Exeter (WISE) project in New Hampshire contains a final technical report, presentations, and additional resources related to the project.

This Google map shows sites in New Hampshire's Great Bay watershed that were sampled for nitrogen concentrations in May 2011 as part of a 2010 Collaborative Research project.

This document summarizes communications and mental modeling stream research conducted by a 2010 Collaborative Research team on perceptions, beliefs, and values of riparian ecosystem services and shoreline protection among stakeholders and residents within a Maine watershed.
