The Nature Conservancy, an international conservation organization, with offices throughout the United States, Central and South America, and the Asia-Pacific region, established a Connecticut River office, based in Northampton, Mass., in 2004. During the 2006 field season, the Conservancy focused its efforts on gaining a better understanding of the paired threats of altered hydrology and fragmentation in the Connecticut River Watershed.
