SESYNC Postdoc Develops New Course for Using Google Earth Engine in S-E Synthesis
By: Alaina Gallagher
Many people know Google Earth as the popular satellite imagery viewing program that transports users to places around the world without ever having to leave their desks. Fewer people, however, may be as familiar with its counterpart Google Earth Engine (GEE)—an analysis tool that takes these satellite images a step further by providing large corresponding datasets.
Pursuit: Social-Ecological Drivers of Change Over Time in Urban Woodlands
"Social-Ecological Drivers of Change Over Time in Urban Woodlands"
Remnant and regenerating forest patches are hotspots of biodiversity and ecosystem services in urban regions. Social uses and benefits, abrupt forest edges, introduced and invasive species, and urban climate warming combine to create novel ecological conditions and management challenges in urban woodlands. An array of public, private, and non-profit organizations engage in management and stewardship of these urban woodland patches.
Workshop: Synthesizing Research on Pastoral Governance of Common-Pool Resources
"Synthesizing Research on Pastoral Governance of Common-Pool Resources"
Communities of mobile livestock keepers—pastoralists—often have systems for the governance and management of land and resources that do not conform to theoretical models that have been developed based on experience in other kinds of ecosystems.
