Title:

Representative Ecosystems: Temperate Pacific Freshwater Emergent Marsh [U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service]

Description:

◦Overview: A key principle of Landscape Conservation Design is that "Stakeholders design landscape configurations that promote resilient and sustainable social-ecological systems" (Campellone et al, 2018). From Campellone et al: (2018): "A beneficial aspect of stakeholder engagement in spatial design is the development of a deeper trust that the models used to identify priorities integrate their interests with other information and knowledge, which furthers social learning and collective agreement on resource allocation and landscape objectives" (Melillo et al., 2014). Overall, the co-development of a spatial design helps organize landscape elements while maintaining and improving stakeholder buy-in" (De Groot, Alkemade, Braat, Hein, & Willemen, 2009; Melillo et al., 2014)."◦Analytical Question: Create a prototype landscape design (blueprint) that integrates multiple values on the landscape including wildlife conservation, forest and agriculture production, recreation, cultural and human health. The prototype will be created based upon readily available data.This analysis will be used to understand landscape-scale conservation and working landscape priorities, while incorporating other important values.The blueprint will be used to represent a sustainable landscape in the future.◦Desired Outcome: A map or maps that represents a balance of multiple values on the landscape, with a focus on conservation and working landscape values.
