Major Decisions and Discussions from Nov. 2014 Core Team Meeting
AppLCC Winter Newsletter 2015
In this edition we describe how Steering Committee members and invited experts began developing a process for articulating the Appalachian LCC’s priority resources, highlight all the new deliverables from our funding research projects, and more.
Full Proposal: Interactive Conservation Planning
Using available data and modeling approaches that are well represented in the literature, researchers will develop conservation planning models that include site selection, threats, and connectivity analyses. These draft results will be presented to Steering Committee and then informed and refined by their feedback and other stakeholders. After each round of feedback, a revised conservation scenario will be produced. Draft conservation scenarios and associated products produced by each of these feedback rounds will be supplied to stakeholders with supporting documentation. Following 2-3 such feedback loops, conservation planning map products will be posted on the Portal.
