Reason for SelectionThe resilient coastal sites indicator seeks to capture features of salt marshes that are important for salt marsh species and ecosystem function both now and in the future. Many of these characteristics, like water quality and landform diversity, also serve as indicators of a site’s potential future habitat quality once the salt marsh is fully inundated and transitions to a new estuarine or marine habitat.Input Data<ul><li><a target='_blank' href='https://secas-fws.hub.arcgis.com/maps/0b3e3940763a4e3aae7647b0fe4c31e4/about' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>Southeast Blueprint 2025 extent</a></li><li>The Nature Conservancy’s (TNC) combined terrestrial and coastal <a target='_blank' href='https://www.conservationgateway.org/ConservationPractices/ClimateChange/Pages/RCN-Downloads.aspx' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>resilient sites for the conterminous U.S.</a> in geodatabase format (<a target='_blank' href='https://tnc.app.box.com/s/iujcn7ru9a1vahxqojnesz9ibgu7e6x2' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>resilient_sites_national.zip</a>), accessed 12-3-2024</li></ul>Mapping Steps<ul><li>To extract the coastal component of the analysis, reclassify the “type_des” field to assign “Marsh Migration Space”, “Tidal Complex”, “Additional Marsh Migration Space”, and “In sea level rise zone” a value of 1, and everything else a value of NoData.</li><li>Clip the TNC data to the bounding box around the Southeast Blueprint 2025 extent.</li><li>Reclassify the numeric resilience field into the standard deviation-based classes that TNC uses to display the resilience data in their viewer. Note: the “sea level rise area” class denotes locations that are not part of a current tidal complex or future marsh migration space, but are at risk of inundation under 6 feet of SLR. Because they are not current or future marsh, they are outside the scope of the coastal resilience analysis. TNC also does not score them in their terrestrial resilience analysis because they are likely to be inundated in the future.<ul><li>-3502 = 0 (sea level rise area)</li><li>-4000 to ≤ -3503 or -3501 to ≤ -2000 = 1 (least resilient)</li><li>-2001 to ≤ -1000 = 2 (less resilient)</li><li>-1001 to ≤ -500 = 3 (slightly less resilient)</li><li>-501 to ≤ 499 = 4 (average/median resilience)</li><li>500 to ≤ 999 = 5 (slightly more resilient)</li><li>1000 to ≤ 1999 = 6 (more resilient)</li><li>2000 to ≤ 3260 = 7 (most resilient)</li></ul></li><li>As a final step, clip to the spatial extent of Southeast Blueprint 2025.</li></ul>Note: For more details on the mapping steps, code used to create this layer is available <a target='_blank' href='https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/file/get/68ba6308d4be021908ad78ae?name=Southeast_Blueprint_2025_Data_Download.zip' rel='nofollow ugc noopener noreferrer'>in the Southeast Blueprint 2025 Data Download</a> under > 6_Code.Final indicator valuesIndicator values are assigned as follows:7 = Most resilient6 = More resilient5 = Slightly more resilient4 = Average/median resilience3 = Slightly less resilient2 = Less resilient1 = Least resilient0 = Sea level rise areaKnown Issues<ul><li>This indicator does not account for the occurrence and timing of disturbance processes, like prescribed fire, which impact resilience.</li><li>Accretion rates were not incorporated into the marsh migration data.</li><li>TNC assessed sea-level rise under a slightly different range of scenarios in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic region, compared to the Gulf of Mexico and South Atlantic regions. In the Gulf and South Atlantic, they used four scenarios: 1.5 ft, 3 ft, 4 ft, and 6.5 ft. In the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, they used 1 ft increments ranging from 1-6 feet. This means that the data used in the portion of coastal Virginia covered by the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic analysis assesses marsh migration space under a slightly less extreme maximum sea-level rise scenario (6 ft vs. 6.5 ft). As a result, this indicator likely underestimates the extent of resilient areas in this portion of coastal Virginia.</li></ul>Disclaimer: Comparing with Older Indicator VersionsThere are numerous problems with using Southeast Blueprint indicators for change analysis.
