The Landscape Characterization and Restoration (LCR) Program

---

Helping coastal resource managers examine the effects of management actions on coastal habitats.

The Landscape Characterization and Restoration (LCR) program explores the interrelationships of a region's ecology, land use, socioeconomics, and management, and publishes this information in electronic format for use by the coastal management community. The program works via grants, cooperative agreements, and contracts with coastal programs to accomplish its goals.
