Landscape Resilience Framework

Book excerpt: The Landscape Resilience Framework is designed to facilitate application of resilience principles to ecosystem management by detailing the seven dimensions of a landscape that contribute to resilience. It represents a synthesis of thinking across empirical ecological studies and social-ecological resilience theory, and was reviewed by a team of expert advisors. Our goal was to create a concise and comprehensive set of key considerations that could be integrated into identifying on-the-ground actions across urban design, conservation planning, and ecosystem management that would contribute to resilient future landscapes.
