Title: U.S. Climate Resilience Toolkit

URL: http://toolkit.climate.gov/

Description: "The U.S. Climate Resilience Toolkit is a website designed to help people find and use tools, information, and subject matter expertise to build climate resilience. The Toolkit offers information from all across the U.S. federal government in one easy-to-use location. The goal is to improve people’s ability to understand and manage their climate-related risks and opportunities, and to help them make their communities and businesses more resilient to extreme events. The site was built in response to the President’s Climate Action Plan and Executive Order 13653 (Preparing the United States for the Impacts of Climate Change), which calls for the federal government to “...develop and provide authoritative, easily accessible, usable, and timely data, information, and decision-support tools on climate preparedness and resilience” to support federal, regional, state, local, tribal, private-sector, and nonprofit-sector efforts to prepare for the impacts of climate change." -- from the website, 9/9/2015

Description: "Today New York has more forest than it has had in the past 150 years. New York's forests serve as an important economic and recreational resource. Preserving and protecting our forests benefits local communities and industries, and the state as a whole." -- from the website, 9/26/2015 "New York State's watersheds, or drainage basins, are the basis for management, monitoring, and assessment activities. Everyone lives in a watershed. It might be large or small. All watersheds are part of the bigger environment. What you do at your house affects everyone downstream and around you." -- from the website, 9/26/2015 "New York State is richly endowed with freshwater lakes, ponds and reservoirs, as well as portions of two of the five Great Lakes and thousands of miles of rivers and streams. These inland water bodies serve as the drinking water supplies, provide flood control to protect life and property, and support recreation, tourism, agriculture, fishing, power generation, and manufacturing. These water bodies also provide habitat for aquatic plant and animal life." -- from the website, 9/26/2015 "An estuary is a place where salty water from the ocean mixes with fresh water from the land and creates a unique and special place for marine species to live, feed, and reproduce. New York's Marine District has several estuaries which are managed cooperatively by DEC with other state, local, and federal government agencies, the scientific community, and direct input from private citizens." -- from the website, 9/26/2015

The quality of runoff is affected by a variety of factors and depends on the season, local meteorology, geography and upon activities which lie in the path of the flow." -- from the website, 9/26/2015

URL: http://www.dec.ny.gov/energy/44992.html

Description: "Choices we make now can reduce our risks while building and diversifying our economy. To help minimize risks from climate change, New York State has set two goals: 1.) Reduce emissions of heat-trapping greenhouse gases by 80 percent from 1990 levels, by the year 2050 ("80 by 50"), and 2.) Improve resilience to climate change in all the state's communities. Emission reduction choices include energy-efficient products, building weatherization and renewable energy generation. All these choices lower New York's greenhouse gas emissions while creating jobs and boosting economic vitality. Climate resilience choices mean adapting built and natural environments to withstand new conditions and recover from extreme events. The economic activity this adaptation generates helps to balance some climate-related costs. State programs are helping New Yorkers benefit from decisions that reduce emissions and improve climate resilience. State plans and projects aim to keep our environment and economy thriving as the climate changes." -- from the website, 9/26/2015

Title: Tidal Wetlands - NYS Dept. of Environmental Conservation

URL: http://www.dec.ny.gov/lands/4940.html

Description: "Tidal wetlands in New York State are found on the Hudson River from the Troy Dam south to the southern tip of Staten Island, and along the entire shoreline of Long Island, including the shorelines of Gardiners Island, Shelter Island and Fishers Island. New York State recognized the importance of this unique habitat and sought to insure its protection from filling and dredging--human activities that had drastically reduced the amount of tidal wetlands in New York by passing the Tidal Wetland Act in 1973. In 1974 DEC collected a set of aerial infrared photographs of all the tidal wetlands on Long Island and along the lower Hudson River. Using these photographs, DEC established the New York State Official Tidal Wetlands Inventory, a set of maps delineating and classifying all the tidal wetlands in New York. These maps are used by DEC and other municipal agencies to control and manage the development, filling and dredging of areas in and around New York's valuable tidal wetlands. This Inventory is also available to the general public to examine. Many individuals wish to consult these maps before undertaking any building or landscaping along the shoreline. The statutory definition of a tidal wetland can be found in New York's Environmental Conservation Law, Article 25, entitled "Tidal Wetlands Act." -- from the website, 9/26/2015

Title: Green Infrastructure Examples for Stormwater Management in the Hudson Valley - NYS Dept. of Environmental Conservation

URL: http://www.dec.ny.gov/lands/58930.html

Description: "Green infrastructure practices maintain or restore stormwater's natural flow pattern by allowing the water to slowly permeate into the ground and be used by plants. These practices include rain gardens, vegetated swales, green roofs and porous pavements. Green infrastructure also includes preserving or restoring natural areas, such as forests, stream buffers and wetlands, and reducing the size of paved surfaces. Green infrastructure generally includes "better site design" or "low impact development" stormwater projects." -- from the website, 9/13/2015

Title: Status and Trends of Freshwater Wetlands in NYS - NYS Dept. of Environmental Conservation

URL: http://www.dec.ny.gov/lands/85861.html

Description: "It is estimated that as of the mid-1990s, there are approximately 2.4 million acres of wetlands in New York. Some areas, like the Adirondacks and the Lake Plains of western New York contain more wetlands because there are larger expanses of flat topography. Other areas, like the Appalachian Highlands, the Hudson Valley, and Long Island, contain relatively fewer wetlands. DEC began a study in the mid-1990s to assess the current status and trends in the freshwater wetlands resource in New York. The Wetland Status and Trend Analysis of New York State Study (PDF)(2.3 MB) compared mid-1980s and mid-1990s aerial photography for a sample of quadrangles in five ecological zones of the state to determine the amount of wetlands; gains, losses or changes in covertype; and to what those changes could be attributed." -- from the website, 9/26/2015

Description: "The design of coastal structures often have complex geology, drainage issues, structural conditions and wave climates that require careful consideration, planning and design which can benefit from the expertise of professional engineers and surveyors. Failure of an erosion control structure, even over a period of years, may result in loss of additional upland, threaten existing buildings and result in damage to adjacent properties. The repair of a failed structure may be as expensive as the original construction." -- from the website, 9/26/2015

Description: "Shoreline erosion is a natural process that occurs on lakes, streams, rivers and along the coast. It is the gradual, although sometimes rapid, removal of sediments from the shoreline. It is caused by a number of factors including storms, wave action, rain, ice, winds, runoff, and loss of trees and other vegetation. Although erosion is not intrinsically harmful, when it is augmented to the point where it affects natural resources, water quality, ecosystems, and property loss, it is generally undesirable." -- from the website, 9/26/2015

Many places have seen changes in rainfall, resulting in more floods, droughts, or intense rain, as well as more frequent and severe heat waves. The planet's oceans and glaciers have also experienced some big changes - oceans are warming and becoming more acidic, ice caps are melting, and sea levels are rising. As these and other changes become more pronounced in the coming decades, they will likely present challenges to our society and our environment." -- from the website, 9/26/3015
