Summary

This dataset represents The Nature Conservancy's Terrestrial Resilience symbolized by Geophysical Settings (90m Resilience is also included in the download of this dataset). Resilience concerns the ability of a living system to adjust to climate change, to moderate potential damages, to take advantage of opportunities, or to cope with consequences; in short, its capacity to adapt. In this project we aim to identify the most resilient examples of key geophysical settings (e.g. sand plains, granite mountains, limestone valleys, etc.) to provide conservationists with a nuanced picture of the places where conservation is most likely to succeed over centuries. The project had three parts: 1) identifying and mapping the geophysical settings, [...]

Purpose

This file contains the 1000 acre hexagons used as the primary unit of analysis for the resilience analysis and the attribute table contains the key attributes for basic interpertation of the results. The key fields include state, ecoregion, geophysical setting, final resilience score stratified by setting and ecoregion, final resilience score stratified by setting and ecoregion classified into categories, landscape complexity category, and local connectedness category.
