Climate Change Action in Coastal Habitats: Case Studies
Land managers are already addressing climate change issues across North America. Here, we share several examples of completed and ongoing climate change projects on coastal land. Explore our collection of case studies:
- Climate adaptation information helps land trusts with land protection and communication challenges
- Ecological corridors protect wildlife movement and water quality in Michigan
- Eld Inlet on Puget Sound
- Identifying conservation priorities for sea level rise adaptation in coastal Maryland
- Land Trust of Santa Cruz County coastal program
- Rush Ranch tidal marsh restoration project
- Using geospatial techniques to plan for climate change impacts on coastal habitats
- Case studies from the Climate Adaptation Knowledge Exchange
- Adding the Impacts of Climate Change to a Strategic Plan: Big Sur Land Trust
- Bald Head Island Conservancy: Catalyzing Small Changes in Climate Change Adaptation
- Land Trusts Response to Climate Change: Examples from the Elkhorn Slough Estuary
