Dataset: Marsh Migration Methodology Development For Wetland Restoration Targeting, Molly Mitchell, Karinna Nunez, Christine Tombleson, Julie Herman

Data

Coastal marsh loss is a significant issue globally, due in part to rising sea levels and high levels of coastal human activity. Marshes have natural mechanisms to allow them to adapt to rising sea levels, however, migration across the landscape is one of those mechanisms and is frequently in conflict with human use of the shoreline. Ensuring the persistence of marshes into the future requires an understanding of where marshes are likely to migrate under sea level rise and targeting those areas for conservation and preservation activities. The goal of this project was to 1) compile existing datasets and information …


Gis Data: Harford County, Maryland – Shoreline Inventory Data 2023, Karinna Nunez, Tamia Rudnicky, Sharon Killeen, Jessica Hendricks, Catherine R. Duning, Evan Hill Jun 2023

Gis Data: Harford County, Maryland – Shoreline Inventory Data 2023, Karinna Nunez, Tamia Rudnicky, Sharon Killeen, Jessica Hendricks, Catherine R. Duning, Evan Hill

Data

The shoreline inventory files have been generated to support the application of the Maryland Shoreline Stabilization Model (SSM), developed by the Center for Coastal Resources Management (CCRM), Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS), to enhance and streamline regulatory decision making in Maryland. This shoreline inventory includes the features needed as inputs to run the SSM.

The data developed for the Shoreline Inventory is based on a three-tiered shoreline assessment approach. This assessment characterizes conditions by using observations made remotely at the desktop using high resolution imagery. The three-tiered shoreline assessment approach divides the shore zone into three regions:

1) the …

Elizabeth River Basin Environmental Justice Indicators, Molly Mitchell, Andrew M. Scheld, Sarah Stafford, Tamia Rudnicky, Joseph Snitzer

Data

This data is a portion of the data included in the Elizabeth River Environmental Justice Tool (https://cmap22.vims.edu/EREJTool/) The Elizabeth River Environmental Justice map viewer contains a variety of layers that will help planners target vulnerable locations and populations within the Elizabeth River Watershed. This data was developed specifically to support the Elizabeth River Project’s decision making in this region.


Road Accessibility From County Seat Under Flooding: Middle Peninsula, Northern Neck, Southside, Molly Mitchell, Jessica Hendricks, Daniel Schatt, Marcia Berman Feb 2023

Road Accessibility From County Seat Under Flooding: Middle Peninsula, Northern Neck, Southside, Molly Mitchell, Jessica Hendricks, Daniel Schatt, Marcia Berman

Data

The impacts of recurrent flooding on roadways present challenging social and economic considerations for all coastal jurisdictions. Maintenance, public and private accessibility, evacuation routes, and emergency services are just a few of the common themes local governments are beginning to address for low-lying roadways currently known to flood. The project implements a protocol developed by CCRM to analyze the level at which road flooding may impact communities and their ability to reach key locations at periodic intervals; through the year 2100 in coastal Virginia. Using a network analysis, road accessibility is evaluated at different levels of flooding (at 0.1 meter …
