A time to celebrate Great Bay!
The Great Bay NERR’s own Chris Peter is an international award winner!
Chris Peter received a Visionary Award from the Gulf of Maine Council on the Marine Environment on May 27th in St. Andrews, New Brunswick.
On March 11, 2026, Great Bay NERR hosted a virtual workshop on Strategies for Facilitating Marsh Migration Workshop. A summary report and recordings of workshop presentations are now available to share lessons learned from the emerging field and inform local and regional restoration efforts.
Over the last few years, the Great Bay NERR has worked with partners to develop a standardized method for monitoring marsh migration in New Hampshire. The mechanisms of salt marsh migration are not well studied in New England and implementing a monitoring program provides a platform for advancing the collective knowledge about drowning and migrating marshes, and how to best manage these rare coastal habitats in our state.
