PARCC project: moving from models to planning and application Neil Burgess
Conceptual diagram Data and analysis Bringing results together Actions
Example outputs • List of species in each country today • List of species in each reserve today • List of species in each country in future (according to traits and species distribution modelling) • List of species in each protected area in future (according to two approaches) • Maps of incoming and outgoing species from each country and each protected area • Maps of the countries / parts of countries / protected areas with the greatest amount of species change
Data • GIS files for region, nations, protected areas • Present and potential future climate data • Maps of species present and future distributions (birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish) • IUCN Red List data supporting threat listing • IUCN species traits data (vulnerability to climate change) • Protected Area management effectiveness data
National or sub-national landscape planning and action • Mapping environmental safeguards for national REDD+ planning • Planning optimal protected area configuration • Defining required corridors between existing protected areas • Input into national land use plans (e.g. For Green Economy, REDD+ or other similar purpose)
Site action at pilot sites • Understanding species that may leave and species that may arrive in each protected area • Defining best places for cross border connectivity projects • Defining areas where climate adaptation corridors might be required between existing protected areas
Input to policy processes • Input to NBSAP processes? • Input into NAPA processes? • Assistance with reporting to UNFCCC and CBD? • Inputting environmental safeguards into national REDD+ readiness planning • Input into emerging Green Economy planning
What is required from countries? Advice on what are the best targets for PARCC to focus on: • 2 years • Some funding • Some technical capacity • Ability to spend time in countries on conservation planning (the final planned part of the PARCC project is planning: Dr Bob Smith)
