Key Communication Questions

Who are the “shared interest” audiences, and which ones should be our priority for outreach? Are there key people who can serve as the LCC’s “introduction” to these new audiences? For example, should we ask existing partners like Darren Miller to help identify potential new partners in the forestry industry?

(2) How will the GCP LCC foster and promote application of the Coarse Filter once the first iteration is done, as well as continued participation in its iterative development and Fine Filter application? (3) Is there support for using the “science of science communication” to improve LCC communications? If so, what resources, people, departments, or other projects within LCC partner organizations are available to contact for information and further collaboration?

Science Agenda Part #1

Value-added for on-gong efforts in GCP Science Team Progress (Kahler)

  • May progress & planned October Meeting Outcomes
  • Science Team Membership

Project Ideas and Alignment with LCD & Partner needs

  • Project Foundational data:
  • Land cover enhancement (TX/OK; RFP) and creation (LA; USGS)
  • Biological Objectives: Gulf: Brown Pelican and Black Skimmer
  • Platforming: G-MIT, Conservation Planning Atlas
  • Red River Project – Emphasis Area (USGS, OSU)
  • Alignment of Landscape Conservation Design (LCD) & Partner Needs

Science Agenda Part #2

Value-added for on-gong efforts in GCP Alignment of LCD processes:

  • Coarse Filter – complete and package for SECAS Blueprint
  • Fine Filter – alignment with TPWD and USFWS-I&M; developing

contexts in coastal TX and Balcones, Red River, and LA Chenier Plain

  • LCD to identify habitat needs - What, How much more, and Where
  • Align

lignment nt of LC LCD proces esses ses – Emphasis Areas in Texas & Oklahoma

Which species/habitats/resources to conserve? At what levels? Who decides?

GOAL-SETTING

What do we know about the status of priority wildlife and resources?

BIOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT SCIENCE TRANSLATION

How do we make science solutions useful?

CONSERVATION ADOPTION

How do we get communities and landowners engaged in conservation?

INFORMATION MANAGEMENT

How will we manage the demand for and creation

  • f data?

CONSERVATION DESIGN

What should landscapes look like to conserve species and resources at goal levels

CONSERVATION DELIVERY

How will we most efficiently put conservation on the ground? What new information will we gather to support conservation?

PRIORITIES

Which species and resources demand immediate attention?

Conservation Framework

MONITORING, EVALUATION AND RESEARCH
