  2. Agenda • Introduction • Background • Ecosystem Structure WG objectives, plans • Open discussion and wrap up

  3. Introduction • Roll call • Meeting goals • Put Ecosystem Structure EBVs into context • Discuss WG objectives and approach • Initiate discussion of EBVs WikimediaCommons

  4. GEO BON Organization

  5. Criteria for EBVs • Able to capture critical scales and dimensions of biodiversity • Biological • A state variable (in general) • Sensitive to change • Technically feasible, economically viable and sustainable in time • Ecosystem agnostic (to the degree possible) https://geobon.org/ebvs

  8. EBV Context https://geobon.org/ebvs

  9. “Traditional EBVs” https://geobon.org/ebvs

  10. Working Group Objectives • Identify Ecosystem Structure EBVs • Identify their attributes • Define each attribute • Lay out observation requirements (Science/Applications Traceability Matrix?) • Convey to CEOS • Summarize in publication • Facilitate operationalization… • Processing, utilization…

  11. Approach • Develop strawman, circulate • Discuss via email and (web) meetings • Revise • Iterate and converge Allegory of Virtue (Andrea Andreani, 1585): Virtue being harassed by Error, Ignorance, and Opinion

  12. Draft Timeline… • 1 July: EBVs and attributes identified and annotated • 30 September: Attributes defined and observations identified • 31 December: observation requirements (as traceability matrix?) • ….. • Workflows • Operationalization

  13. Example: Species Traits Kissling et al 2018

  14. Draft Updated EBV List…

  15. Draft Updated EBV List…

  16. An alternative?

  17. Discussion and Wrapup • Thoughts? • Actions and next steps
