This guide outlines a structured process to engage experts and develop timely, science-based solutions to environmental problems. The FAST process provides an iterative, weight-of-evidence approach for these experts to reach general agreement around technical recommendations.

This technical memo presents guidelines for calculating the pollutant removal rate of restored or constructed buffers established on shorelines with different soils, slopes and buffer widths. This tool can help New England communities use buffers to meet water quality standards and fulfill stormwater permitting requirements.

This resource contains the presenter slides, Q&A responses, recording, and presenter bios from the June 2019 webinar Exploring Applications of Ecosystem Service Conceptual Models for Coastal Habitats.

This resource contains the presenter slides, Q&A responses, recording, and presenter bios from the May 2019 webinar Human and Environmental Well-being in Alaska's Kachemak Bay Watershed: An Ecosystem Services Assessment.

This document summarizes a December 2017 workshop hosted by Mission-Aransas Reserve that explored ways to generate a return on investment from wetland preservation and restoration projects in Texas.

These talking points, developed by a 2015 Science Transfer project team, can help you communicate the importance of blue carbon and estuaries to different audiences.

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.

A suite of information and decision-support tools for landowners, communities, and policymakers interested in leveraging the benefits of buffers is now available thanks to a two-year effort to collect and integrate information about buffer protection and management.

This model is a power-law based model developed by using data for four different wetlands in Waquoit Bay and Great Pond estuaries, MA. It was developed as part of a 2011 Collaborative Research project, "Bringing Wetlands to Market in Massachusetts."

This document helps guide coastal and land managers in understanding the ways by which coastal blue carbon can help achieve coastal management goals.
