Mission
To enhance the ability of organizations and communities to understand, manage, and adapt to our changing landscape.

Guiding Principles

  • Consider and respect each participating organization’s unique mandates and jurisdictions.
  • Coordinate with other LCCs, committees, workgroups, and organizations that add mutual value, maximize capacity, avoid redundancies, and leverage resources.
  • Provide rigorous biological, physical, and sociological science in support of sound, outcome-based, conservation and management.
  • Respect social, political and legal limitations while promoting landscape-level solutions that benefit the greater conservation community.
  • Be transparent in operations and ensure full public access to the NWB LCC process and products.

The overarching goal is to inform conservation and sustainable resources management within the NWB LCC by:

  • Providing better understanding and prediction of effects of climate change and other stressors on landscape level physical and ecosystem processes;
  • Supporting coordination, collaboration and communication among partners to facilitate knowledge exchange and improve efficiencies in their individual and shared science and information activities;
  • Identifying and supporting scientific research, data collection, analysis, and sharing to address common information needs of land and resource management decision makers;
  • Providing landscape scale information to better understand and plan for potential  impacts of environmental change on natural resources, subsistence and cultural resources, and human infrastructure;
  • Supporting and coordinating the collection and synthesis of baseline information and monitoring, and enabling data management and information synthesis at landscape scales; and by
  • Engaging the community at large to help identify shared science needs, collaborate and leverage opportunities to address shared science needs, and avoid duplication of efforts.
