This 2021 article which appeared in Ecology and Society describes a research project exploring how alders, peatlands, and groundwater flows were incorporated into a spatial tool that was used in case studies with user groups and in outreach efforts. The paper includes evidence that these efforts to engage with stakeholders are resulting in attitudinal shifts as well as on-the-ground changes in peoples ’ decision-making.

These multimedia outreach and communication tools were developed by the Kachemak Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve and its partners in support of a project to advance peatland blue carbon projects in the Kenai Lowlands, Alaska.

This stakeholder engagement plan outlines an approach to strengthen stakeholder networks and advance blue carbon conversations in the Kenai Lowlands, Alaska.

This logic model describes research objectives for a project to assess the potential for blue carbon in the Kenai Lowlands, Alaska.

These GIS-generated maps show peatlands by major land owners in the Kenai Lowlands, Alaska region.

Oysters are the tiny superheroes of coastal environments. They enhance water quality, create habitat, and protect shorelines from storms and erosion. Along the Pacific Coast, native oysters are in decline, due in part to sedimentation, inadequate protection, and unsustainable harvests.
