Action Area 3: Develop tools and methods to support and evaluate habitat restoration

Management Needs Priority Science Actions
A. Evaluate performance of restored areas on a landscape scale. A. Develop methods for evaluating long-term benefits of habitat restoration based on current under-standing of how species use restored areas and how use changes over time as habitats evolve.
B. Effectively plan restoration, enhancement, and mitigation projects to meet project and/or system-wide goals and objectives. B. Estimate and assess the system-wide effects of the location and sequence of tidal marsh habitat restoration projects in regions where sea level is rising and climate is changing.
