Case Study |
Case Study: Begin planning early for next steps
GUIDE CASE STUDY: Collaborative science projects are designed to inform and catalyze action, but often those impacts do not develop until after a grant ends. Two project teams working with New England reserves found different ways to support the work of their partners after their grants ended.

Case Study: Resolving Conflict
GUIDE CASE STUDY: Collaboration with diverse team members and stakeholders can sometimes result in disagreements or contention, as was the experience of the New England Climate Adaptation Project, a regional initiative involving the four New England reserves.

Case study: Including community leaders on the team
GUIDE CASE STUDY: To be effective, collaborative project teams must include the right skill sets, but it’s also important to include team members who have established relationships with or access to your project’s intended users.

Salt Marsh Pond Biogeochemistry Changes Hourly‐to‐Yearly but Does Not Scale With Dimensions or Geospatial Position

This 2020 article which appeared in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences describes a study that examined pond development and properties in salt marshes in order to better characterize them under different management and sea level rise scenarios as part of a 2017-2020 collaborative research project.
