Review  Examples of activities

Prevailing science directions and new projects  Major Themes Remote sensing Ecosystem services Land change science  Regional Initiatives Flood inundation Conservation tools Urban watersheds Irrigated agriculture National/global remote sensing products help managers take a broader view but must apply to resource decisions made at regional-to-local scales to be of maximum benefit. Banshee Reeks, Loudon Co., VA; percent canopy cover from the 2001 National Land Cover Database

Prevailing science directions and new projects  Specific program in Climate and Land Use Change  Need for understanding land use/cover change is important to all mission areas Drivers/causes of landscape change Trends in landscape change Consequences of change Modeling land change Developing plausible scenarios of future landscapes Land Change Science

Prevailing science directions and new projects  Land use as a BMP  Urban BMPs  Agricultural BMPs Ecosystem Services

Prevailing science directions and new projects  Develop techniques specifically for fire scar, burn severity and recovery mapping in wetland environments  Develop software for metric derivation to compare various satellite products over Eastern U.S. forests  Use lidar measured canopy heights to evaluate heights modeled by NLCD class (used in stream temperature modeling)  Test importance of Landsat atmospheric calibration for surface water inundation mapping  Assess how easily Landsat ECV cal/val data can be affectively generated “automatically”  Investigating the breadth of hyperspectral imaging utility in land change research Remote Sensing

Prevailing science directions and new projects  Web-enabling FEMA’s HAZUS flood loss assessment software for FIM  Using remote sensing to identify and monitor irrigated lands in the particularly challenging Eastern US 1/23/10 3/19/10 4/04/10 4/20/10 7/12/10 5/07/10 Regional Initiatives

 Web-based tool for Flood risk analysis  Web-enables FEMA’s HAZUS flood loss assessment software  A component of the USGS Flood Inundation Mapping Initiative  Cooperators: Water, Hazards, CLU mission areas WSCs nationwide Federal Emergency Management Administration National Weather Service Cities of Albany, GA, and Nashville, TN Inter-center and cross-mission collaboration

Leadership in partnerships and alliances outside the USGS The Implications of Land Use, Cover, and Management Change in the Chesapeake Bay Watershed Mapping and Monitoring Landscape Characteristics Forecasting Urban Land Use/Cover Change Effects of Impervious Surface Patterns on Stream Flow Effects of Agricultural Conservation Practices on Water Quality Effects of Stormwater Management Practices on Water Quality Geospatial Support for Conservation and Restoration Decisions Web-based Application Development for Adaptive Management Coordination of Climate Science Chesapeake Bay Stat Chesapeake Bay Program

Science communication and impact

 Primary products are RGE/EDGE produced journal articles and USGS reports  37 products to include news items, advice, journal papers, USGS publications, book chapters, maps  7 workshops and working group participation  32 lectures, briefings, training sessions  5 proposals (2 wins)  Deliver products to partners as a result of collaborative agreements (e.g., CBP conservation tool development, Anacostia watershed tool, FEMA HAZUZ, land cover future scenarios)  Principal partner of products (all CBP members, FEMA, CLUC)  Land cover futures key to EPA TMDL regulations  Contract staff key to web tools

 Linking biophysical process information with site-specific knowledge of the landscape (remote sending and data integration)  High resolution mapping of land use, agricultural management, conservation program information; extensive water and air quality monitoring  Lidar DEM, wetness indices, radar/LIDAR mapping of wetland processes linking vegetation response parameters to landscape mapped variability Landscape effects on water quality, Eastern Shore, MD (Choptank CEAP) Science communication and impact
