Since 2009, the Grand Teton National Park (GTNP) has been working to restore 4,500 acres of converted hay fields to their natural sagebrush conditions—conducting controlled experiments, initial restoration, and an adaptive management approach to achieve long-term, high quality ecological restoration goals.

Nature-Based Solutions Case Study Search
This database contains over 400 implementations of nature-based solutions. Use the filters to identify the case studies most relevant to you.
While all cases here exemplify applications of NBS strategies, they were gathered from various sources and not all were written using the framing of nature-based solutions. To qualify as a nature-based solution, a project must provide benefits to both people and nature. In some instances, the human benefits are present but not emphasized in the case write ups; these cases were included because they still provide useful information to learn from.

In the last decade, landowners and conservation partners have increased research and restoration efforts along the Upper Bear River to rebuild irrigation diversions for water-rights holders and improve fish passage conditions and habitat. Push-up dams (river substrate berms) used as irrigation diversions have resulted in sediment accumulation, lack of riparian plant cover, and loss of fish due to channelization.
