The Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP) aims to protect, restore, and enhance wetlands through voluntary landowner participation. In Iowa, the state conservationist mandated the use of third-party vendors like AES to implement WRP projects faster and better. AES has restored over 60 sites and 3,000 acres in Iowa, bringing expertise in wetland science and construction. Their large native plant nursery allows them to cost-effectively source appropriate plant mixtures meeting Iowa's rigorous standards of 30-50 species per site. By the end of 2014, AES' work in Iowa included seeding, excavating, and planting across thousands of acres as well as installing water control structures.0.1 IUKWC Workshop Freshwater EO - Harry Dixon Introduction - Jun17

Chris Swanston gave this invited presentation at the 2017 Environmental Justice in the Anthropocene Symposium.
The Forest Service recognizes that climate change poses a multi-generational challenge that spans borders, transcends unilateral solutions, and demands shared learning and resources (USDA Forest Service 2011). The Climate Change Response Framework (CCRF, www.forestadaptation.org) grew from this recognition, and was formally launched in 2009 to address the major challenges that land managers face when considering how to integrate climate change into their planning and management. Practitioners whose livelihoods and communities depend on healthy forests face daunting challenges when responding to rapid forest decline or preparing for future change, particularly tribal natural resources professionals and tribal communities (Vogesser et al. 2013). Emphasizing climate services support for these rural communities can help them build adaptive capacity in their cultural and economic systems, often considered fundamental to environmental justice. Supporting climate-informed decision-making by these practitioners and communities requires climate service organizations to show up, listen, and then creatively work with practitioners to meet their own goals on the lands they manage. The emphasis of the CCRF on stewardship goals, as opposed to climate change and its effects, represents a subtle but important shift in focus to people and their values. TEST Draft for michelle

CIAT's work on developing a cassava crop model to better understand impacts of climate change and priorities for adaptation. The workplan involves:
1. Developing a mechanistic cassava crop model with components for canopy development, phenology, biomass, drought response, and other processes.
2. Integrating the model into a large-area modeling framework (GLAM) to reproduce historical yield responses to climate variability.
3. Calibrating and evaluating the model using multi-site trial and yield data.
4. Running the model to improve estimates of climate change impacts on cassava and help establish breeding priorities for adaptation.Sustainable Practice Targets - an overview

This document summarizes research from the USDA-ARS REAP-DOE Regional Corn Stover Partnership on developing sustainable supplies of corn residue and other biomass feedstocks. Key findings include:
- Moderate corn stover harvest of 3.9 Mg/ha had minimal impact on subsequent grain yields, but excessive removal degraded soil quality.
- Sustainable stover harvest rates vary by site and averages mask this variability.
- Landscape diversity through cover crops and perennials can increase sustainable biomass quantities while protecting soils and water quality.
- Models show how allocating grain production across subfields of a county can maximize profit while minimizing impacts.Lessons Learned from Five Years of Investment by USDA NIFA into Climate Chang...

Key lessons include: (1) Conservation planning must be done at the watershed scale with sufficient water quality and modeling information; (2) Pollutants of concern and their sources must be identified before implementing practices; and (3) Technical assistance to farmers works best when delivered locally by a trusted contact. Effective conservation requires addressing economic, social, and technical factors influencing farmer decision-making. While models and monitoring provide useful information, they also have limitations and must be carefully designed and implemented.CV 6-2015.doc
