Paper Applying Human Dimensions Theory Into Practice GWS2013 abstracts as of January 2, 2013 • Listed alphabetically by lead author / organizer (Invited Papers Sessions grouped at end of file) Applying Human Dimensions Theory Into Practice: A Story of The 556th National Wildlife Refuge 5399 The recent establishment of the Everglades Headwaters National Wildlife Refuge and Conservation Area demonstrates how human dimensions, climate change, and ecological resilience strongly influenced the Paper biological planning process. The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service engaged a disparate group of stakeholders, partners, and technical experts to inform the refuge’s conservation design. Human dimensions tools were used to understand the cultural ecosystem services that informed the outdoor recreational compatibility determinations. Partnership engagement was integral in developing the resource management plan. Stakeholder engagement was critical because two-thirds of the refuge will be conservation easements, providing wildlife benefits on lands that will continue to be owned and managed by willing landowners for agricultural production. The final planning document was informed by the biological and social drivers of Central Florida. In the end, the Everglades Headwaters will serve as a wildlife and ecological greenway between existing conservation lands from central Florida to Everglades National Park. Value The Everglades Headwaters NWR is a fusion of theoretical and applied human dimensions in the context of proposition: establishing a federal protected place.

Simultaneously, non-native plant invasions are Paper predicted to increase upslope with rising temperatures. To manage for native plant assemblages within these novel communities, we need to understand how current plant communities respond to environmental (precipitation, elevation, substrate age, type) and anthropogenic (disturbance) gradients. In 2011/2012 the NPS Inventory & Monitoring Program established 60 vegetation plots (1000m2) in the subalpine shrublands of Hawai‘i Volcanoes (HAVO) and Haleakalā (HALE) National Parks. Preliminary results indicate high variance in species richness, abundance, and shrub density. Elevation and anthropogenic influences (e.g., presence of feral ungulates) were important in explaining species composition. Non-native species were more abundant at lower elevations, whereas rare plants were correlated to ungulate exclusion. Quantifying patterns in these unique tropical communities is critical for predicting future effects of climate change.

The project rehabilitated the culturally significant waterfront, recreated open-water in the historic turning basin, Paper and restored tidal mudflat and brackish wetlands along the Saugus River. The design included a comprehensive planning and environmental compliance strategy, and intensive pre- and post-restoration monitoring. Wetland vegetation, fish community, water quality, tidal regime, benthic invertebrates, and wildlife use will be monitored until 2018. The restored wetland is a low marsh-mud flat dominated by dwarf spikerush and frequented by foraging shorebirds. Fish transitioned from a freshwater to estuarine/brackish community dominated by killifish. Inundation by tidal estuarine water increased and water and sediment quality of the river improved. The restoration successfully removed invasive vegetation from the wetland and provided habitat for native wetland plants and shorebirds. The restoration and monitoring serve as a model for integrated historic and natural resource preservation. Value Project serves as a model for integrated historic and natural resource preservation.

Such areas in Poster Saudi Arabia cannot tolerate negative human activities for a long. Growing tourism activities and urbanization are noticeable in Ashgaygah which, effects on the natural environment in different ways such as decreasing the vegetation cover and degrading the soil. Ashgaygah sand dunes area has seasonal tourism festivals twice a year and associated activities with these festivals were usually uncontrolled as observed during several seasons. The aim of this study is to provide a clear picture of the current condition of natural environment at Ashgayagh and develop a model to conserve and rehabilitate the area taking into account the continuation of sustainable tourism.
