Research Project:
Ceap-Wetlands Mid-Atlantic Regional Study
Location: Hydrology and Remote Sensing Laboratory
Project Number: 1265-13610-027-62
Project Type:
Reimbursable
Start Date: Jul 23, 2008
End Date: Dec 31, 2011
Objective:
Provide science-based data, results and information to routinely inform conservation decisions affecting wetland ecosystems and the services they provide. Develop a broad collaborative foundation that facilitates the production and delivery of scientific data, results and information.
Approach:
Conduct collaborative regional investigations to:
¿ quantify wetland ecosystem services across an alteration gradient in agricultural landscapes;
¿ interpret effects of conservation practices and programs, and the effectiveness (i.e., the type, location, land treatment, design and/or management) of conservation practices on ecosystem services; and
¿ identify multiple-scale factors that influence the capacity for a wetland to provide an ecosystem service within a range of estimates.
