Overview Ecoregional approach Pilot project aims December update

identify conservation features gather available information set conservation goals identify impacts and human uses develop initial priority scenarios using decision support tools evaluate results with experts develop final priority conservation areas and alternative scenarios Products: spatial database decision support site priorities Marine Ecoregional Assessment Process

Northwest Atlantic Marine ecoregion

Aim #1 Work with the MMC to define and characterize the Marine Habitat and Biodiversity data theme Contributing to the Multipurpose Marine Cadastre

Aim #2 Determine and categorize what biodiversity features to include in the MMC Contributing to the Multipurpose Marine Cadastre

Aim #3 Define data standards and a peer review process Contributing to the Multipurpose Marine Cadastre

Aim #4 Implement Marine Habitat and Biodiversity information Contributing to the Multipurpose Marine Cadastre

Aim #5 Share lessons learned and develop a process from these pilot projects Contributing to the Multipurpose Marine Cadastre

December update Defined biodiversity and categorized features Submitted benthic habitat data Initiated peer review process
