NWF: How Restoring Longleaf Pine Can Help Prepare the SE for Global Warming
-
Longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) forests are one of America’s natural
treasures, yet past exploitation has left them hanging by a thread,
now covering just 3 percent of their pre-settlement range. Because
other pine species in the Southeast may be more susceptible to
global warming, longleaf pine forests have an opportunity to
reclaim some of their former glory. Indeed, re-establishing longleaf
pine ecosystems will benefit all Americans by improving climate
resilience, economic opportunity, and ecosystem vitality.
This report provides a summary of recent literature on how global
warming will affect forests in the Southeastern United States and how longleaf pine is expected to be resilient to many of these
changes. It makes a strong case for why longleaf pine ecosystem
restoration should be the centerpiece of forest-based climate
adaptation and carbon sequestration efforts in the region, as well
as efforts to improve the economic opportunities of traditionally
underserved landowners.

FL: Addressing the Challenge of Climate Change in the Greater Everglades Landscape
-
“Addressing the Challenge of Climate Change in the Greater Everglades
Landscape” is a research initiative funded by the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)
and carried out by a group of researchers at the Department of Urban
Studies and Planning at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology
(MIT).
The study investigates possible trajectories of future transformation
in the Greater Everglades Landscape relative to four main drivers:
climate change, shifts in planning approaches and regulations,
population change, and variations in financial resources. Through
a systematic exploration at the landscape-scale, this research identifies
some of the major challenges to future conservation efforts
and illustrates a planning method which can generate conservation
strategies resilient to a variety of climatic and socioeconomic
conditions.
