This project will address species-habitat relationships for a priority aquatic system for the GCPO LCC, Mainstem Big Rivers. Specifically, the project will collect subsurface aquatic habitat data using side-scan sonar and high resolution bathymetry data in the Pearl River system of Louisiana. This project expands on current work ongoing in the Pearl River, and would extend habitat data collection for the purposes of making recommendations on restoration of aquatic habitat for species endpoints in this aquatic system. This project directly addresses landscape conservation design and will be used to inform Adaptation Strategies.

In 2014, Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) was awarded a grant from USFWS Baton Rouge Conservation Office to provide “Data Validation of Subsurface Habitat Classification for Aquatic Systems and to Expand Biological Monitoring in the Pearl River Basin in Support of Developing Species-Habitat Relationships and Species Endpoints”. Specific project objectives are as follows:1.Contribute to the development of subsurface aquatic habitat data in the Pearl River basin2.Summarize these data in a manner that characterizes subsurface aquatic habitats3.Field validation of the interpreted data and spatial distribution of habitat types4.Collect biological data with specific reference to the newly developed...

This project built on an existing regional conservation partnership to use the most recent downscaled climate model projections to forecast the likely impacts of climate change to species and ecosystems in the Lower Mississippi Valley (LMV). The objective of this work was to develop and test ecological and biological models to facilitate regional adaptive management of wildlife resources and the forest and wetland ecosystems that support them in the LMV. The modeled projections were then used to evaluate climate change effects on high priority bird species, waterfowl, amphibians, and fisheries. In particular, the researchers sought to answer two key questions: (1) what are the impacts of predicted climate change...
