This document discusses background on coastal barrier island systems, the disruption of coastal sediment supply resulting, the physical and biological impacts of sediment removal and placement on benthic habitats, impacts of sediment removal and placement on fish and other marine species, changes in migratory bird nesting and foraging habitats resulting from sediment removal and placement, the ong-term impacts of sediment removal and placement on physical coastal resiliency, and the data necessary for monitoring/assessing these projects. 

This short document links to a series of resources and tools that can be used to incorporate watershed planning and green infrastructure priorities into State Hazard Mitigation Plans.

This document details methods the USFS implements to further forest restoration efforts.

Includes a table of NBS, their average installation cost, average maintenance cost, and key cost considerations

Collection of case studies containing past floodplain reconnection projects, including habitat restoration and side channel creation. At the bottom of the page, Inter-Fluve also has information for related nature-based solutions (NBS) such as dam removal, large log design, and off channel habitat restoration.

Comprised of numerous detailed diagrams, this tool provides technical information for assessing a waterbody and determining the appropriate restoration technique. In depth information is also given about contractor relations and project execution.

This Interagency Working Group provides support for energy communities across the United States, specifically those in transition due to coal mine/power plant closures. This landing page includes links to several tools/databases (the funding clearinghouse, which links to several federal/state funding resources; maps/visualization tools, including a coal power reinvestment tool, a map of recognzied energy communities in the IWG, and a tax credit map), and a project planning guide with guideliens for social and economic transitionis after a plant/mine closure.

This website provides information to fire managers in the states surrounding the great lakes.

This guide aids land managers in writing an invasive species management plan and monitoring the outcomes and adaptive management strategies.

Provides agency leaders with vegetation and wildland fire/fuel information to enable strategic fire planning.

Encompassing all aspects of large wood designs, this guide covers their geomorphic, hydrological, and ecological considerations. The authors also discuss the risks involved, regulatory considerations, and monitoring.

Viewing living shorelines through the nature-based solutions paradigm, this guidebook provides techniques to create living shorelines. The guidebook contains additional information about the permitting steps and funding opportunities available.

This technical document delves into the hydrodynamic, terrestrial, and ecological parameters that impact living shoreline creation projects. Additional topics include regulatory considerations and invasive species management.
