Science - Regional LCD Coordination

Value-added for on-gong efforts in the region

  • Alignment of LCD processes:
  • Coarse filter LCD Ecological Indices Project, TPWD
  • Encourage Cross-Border alignment in Louisiana and Oklahoma
  • Fine filter LCD efforts Mid-coast Texas and Balcones, FWS I&M
  • Connect I&M with EIP and Gulf Program

Value-added through the provision and hosting

  • geospatial platform (CPA) – partner access
  • spatial data - refinement and constant improvement
  • Decision support and Inventory/Monitoring tools (GMIT/MODU)
  • ASK - Do we have science projects or capacity needs we need to

move forward with in 2016 based on our discussions?

  • Convene and add value to landscape conservation design efforts across our

LCC and with other LCCs (Emphasis areas, SECAS, EPIC).

  • Refinement of grassland tools – I&M (G-MIT & GRIP)
