Approach
Increase resilience by preserving biodiversity
Tactics
- Identify important habitat manipulations based on monitoring
- Protect critical areas
- Inventory and monitor plants in riparian areas and groundwater-dependent ecosystems.
- Identify important habitat by linking functional resilience of current vegetation to climate change scenarios and phenology.
- Through assessment process
- identify locations appropriate for introducing or managing natural wildfire or mechanical work; embrace disturbance.
