Maryland Wetland Adaptation to Sea Level Rise - Wetland Adaptation Areas Index 2100

The results of the Sea Level Affecting Marshes Model (SLAMM) were analyzed for specific conservation criteria for long-term planning that may help increase coastal resiliency in Maryland. The conservation criteria include areas that may support future wetland migration; wildlife habitat and corridors; high priority terrestrial living resources; vulnerable wetland habitat; and suitable hydric soils for wetland establishment. From these criteria, a conservation model was developed to prioritize the most important areas for wetland adaptation. The 'High' designation represents areas with the greatest potential for providing high quality wetlands habitat by 2100. This is a MD iMAP hosted service layer.
