Kentucky Water Science Center (KY WSC)
Located in Cooperative / Our Plan / Section 2: Science Capacity within the Appalachian Community Federal Departments/Agencies
Key Findings & Management Recommendations
The Appalachian LCC-funded study is the first region-wide assessment to document “flow-ecology” relationships – showing connections between observed impacts under current water withdrawal standards (based on daily water gauge data collected over the last 15 years and fish surveys) and the decline in freshwater fish communities.

File ECMAScript program Landscape-scale conservation design across biotic realms - sequential integration of aquatic and terrestrial landscapes
Systematic conservation planning has been used extensively throughout the world to identify important areas for maintaining biodiversity and functional ecosystems, and is well suited to address large-scale biodiversity conservation challenges of the twenty-first century. Systematic planning is necessary to bridge implementation, scale, and data gaps in a collaborative effort that recognizes competing land uses. Here, we developed a conservation planning process to identify and unify conservation priorities around the central and southern Appalachian Mountains as part of the Appalachian Landscape Conservation Cooperative (App LCC). Through a participatory framework and sequential, cross-realm integration in spatial optimization modeling we highlight lands and waters that together achieve joint conservation goals from LCC partners for the least cost. This process was driven by a synthesis of 26 multi-scaled conservation targets and optimized for simultaneous representation inside the program Marxan to account for roughly 25% of the LCC geography. We identify five conservation design elements covering critical ecological processes and patterns including interconnected regions as well as the broad landscapes between them. Elements were then subjected to a cumulative threats index for possible prioritization. The evaluation of these elements supports.

slides Yvette put together in Denver - the purpose of that was to help us organize our thoughts at that meeting and to help understand some context of where we've been to examine where we are going. It was not vetted so please keep in mind ...but it if helps jog some thinking, great.

LCC Lessons Learned WG
Work Group Lead: Jean Brennan (FWS-SA). What’s worked elsewhere that we can learn from in redefining our 2nd generation Landscape Conservation Partnership? Participants: Members of the LCC community (focus on Coordinators-level). SOW to include: • Can capture the context of how partnerships evolve, 22 LCCs • Look at existing organizational development research • Think about conservation partnerships and networks more broadly {see dedicated work space: [PEOPLES] tab, [WORKSHOP] secondary navigation}
