Places Where We Work

Arctic Coastal Lands
Alaska has 9% of the world's arctic vegetation, but 30% of the world's arctic wetlands. The Nature Conservancy works with partners to create a network of conservation reserves in this extraordinary environment.
Polar Marine Systems
The Bering Sea is among the most productive marine environments on Earth. The Nature Conservancy works together with local communities, commercial fishing interests, public agencies and conservation organizations to understand and stem the decline in the numbers of marine mammals, seabirds and fishes.
Temperate Rainforests
These rainforests are among the richest and rarest forest systems on Earth, storing more organic matter than any other forest type. The Nature Conservancy works with partners to achieve a balance of working forests, habitat reserves and sustainable communities.
Wild Salmon Systems
Hundreds of millions of wild salmon fill Alaska's streams, rivers and lakes each year. The Nature Conservancy integrates statewide research, policy and habitat management efforts with local watershed work.
