Support for the implementation of landscape conservation design through Alaska’s LCCs
The Northwest Boreal Landscape Conservation Cooperative (NWB LCC) is a partnership between agencies involved in land management across Alaska, Yukon, Northwest Territories, and British Columbia. The NWB LCC aims to coordinate science and support to decision makers for improving land management decisions. Knowledge gaps have been identified by the NWB LCC and are beginning to be filled. One of the priority information gaps is knowledge of the anthropogenic footprint currently on the landscape.The anthropogenic footprint is all the disturbance types made by various human activities, usually through some form of industrial development. Examples include roads, power lines, pipelines, and clear cuts among many others....
Collaborate with the USFWS and its Northwest Boreal Landscape Conservation Cooperative (NWB LCC) Landscape Conservation Design (LCD) team to support the NWB LCC in the application of the Conservation Matrix Model (CMM), as developed by BEACONs, within the NWB LCC planning region. This will include assistance with the acquisition and development of datasets, modification of software planning tools, participation in workshops for knowledge and technology transfer, and undertaking (1) a LCC-wide assessment of benchmark potential including existing protected areas, (2) pilot case studies in the Central Yukon and Bering Sea – Western Interior regions, and (3) assist in the identification of candidate benchmark networks...
The recipient will collaborate with the BEACONs Project team to support the NWB LCC in the application of the Conservation Matrix Model (CMM), as developed by BEACONs, within the NWB LCC planning region. This will include assistance with the acquisition and development of relevant datasets; modification of software planning tools; delivery of webinars and workshops for knowledge and technology transfer; identification of priority species goals, datasets, and models; and undertaking (1) pilot case studies in the Central Yukon and Bering Sea – Western Interior regions of Alaska to demonstrate the identification of candidate benchmark networks, and (2) a NWB LCC-wide assessment of benchmark potential including existing...
