Abstract

Characterizes ecological and physical processes at multiple spatial scales by systematically uncovering the interactions of biological, physical, and human processes that have created current conditions. Identifies key questions and conditions, investigates and describes conditions, describes reference conditions, synthesizes and interprets the information, and provides recommendations and management options.
