Report
Level of Effort:
This report provides on guidance on ways to adapt the Shoreline Greenway Trail to the increasing frequencies of heavy rain, wildfires, hurricanes, flood events, and storm surges. The report defines what we mean by resilience for a trail in coastal Connecticut, identifies climate impacts facing the trail now, and in the years to come, shares design suggestions that could build resiliency on existing and new sections, and explores how the trail itself can be essential to wider community resiliency.

This NOAA Fisheries ArcGIS StoryMap aids project applicants and Federal action agency partners in using relevant, sensitive habitats data to develop comprehensive Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) assessments. The tool also supports Federal action agencies and project proponents in determining when an updated habitat survey for sensitive resources (including tidal marsh, shellfish habitat, hard seafloor, submerged aquatic vegetation, rocky habitats, and mudflats) may be required for a complete EFH consultation.

The Long Island Sound watershed is home to nearly 9 million people in parts of Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Canada. Government agencies, nonprofits, and Tribal Nations have overseen numerous projects to monitor and protect the water resources of this watershed and the sound. Although there is an abundance of data, there is no easy way to search them or a central place to manage this information. To help, the U.S. Geological Survey, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and the Long Island Sound Study have created an interactive map to help users find and understand data about the water resources of the Long Island Sound and its watershed.
This mapping tool does not host data or maintain data repositories. Instead, it compiles and presents metadata from publicly accessible databases managed by State and other organizations.
