Ría Lagartos & Ría Celestún Special Biosphere Reserves Guatemala: Sierra de las Minas Biosphere Reserve Costa Rica: Corcovado National Park Dominican Republic: Del Este National Park Belize: Rio Bravo Conservation & Management Area Ecuador: Machalilla National Park Ecuador: Podocarpus National Park Bolivia: Amboró National Park Peru: Yanachaga-Chemillen National Park PiP Case Study Sites

5. Selected Results, Base Study CONTEXT FOR PA MANAGEMENT STABLE AREAS: Remote PAs or Opportunity PAs, watersheds, little pressure for agriculture

6. RAPIDLY CHANGING AREAS: PAs Created to Stop Change (road, mining, etc.) Transformation due to forces outside CONTEXT FOR PA MANAGEMENT

7. TWO TYPES OF PAs CORE AREAS most of area under protection managed to limit consumptive or extractive activities (IUCN Categories Ia,Ib,II)

8. . Selected Results, Base Study managed for multiple objectives Residence and consumptive uses allowed (IUCN Categories III, IV, V, VI) BIOSPHERE RESERVES & MULTIPLE USE AREAS

National Level : above factors + social data (GIS) on poverty, landlessness, government expenditure Regional Level : above (if available) + human footprint data; little change data exists; use proxies.
