Assess the economic costs and benefits of implementing a "Defend and Grow the Core" Approach for invasive annual grass management as a pre-emptive measure for costs and benefits and prevent expansion of losses from wildfire risk
Identify invasive species management costs based on monetizing prevention, early detection and rapid response, aggressive management and restoration for ecological states associated with intact cores, low/moderate invasion transition cores, and high invasion mitigation areas; 2) identify raw cost in dollars of invasie species management implemente3d through a “defend and grow the core: aproach based on current level of invasion and future level of invasion after 40 years based on status quo of resources and 25%, 50% and 75% increase of investment of resources; 3) utilize matrix of costs for intact core, mild/mod invaded, and heavily invaded “cores” and create spatial scenaiors of assuming some level of effectiveness...
