27 3 Objectives: 1. Conduct and coordinate information exchange between scientists and managers to advance decision - making and conservation at a landscape scale. * Science Strategy * Communication Strategy

28 Objectives: 2. Enhance climate - smart conservation ( nature - based adaption and mitigation ) on a landscape scale.

29 Climate Smart Principles: Forward looking goals ID actions linked to future conditions Design actions in ecosystem / watershed context Adaptive and flexible management timely to continual change

30 Climate Smart Principles: Collaborate and communicate across sectors for timely long term solutions Follow Ellies TEN % rule : Test, and Experiment Now

31 Objectives: 2. Enhance climate - smart conservation ( nature - based adaption and mitigation ) on a landscape scale. Support place - based projects in ecoregions that advance conservation at landscape scale

32 Objectives: 2. Enhance climate - smart conservation ( nature - based adaption and mitigation ) on a landscape scale. Support place - based projects in ecoregions that advance conservation at landscape scale

33 Objectives: 2. Enhance climate - smart conservation ( nature - based adaption and mitigation ) on a landscape scale. Support and coordinate cross - sectoral understanding of ecosystem processes and services to advance climate - smart conservation at landscape scale

34 Objectives: 3. Ensure CA LCC provides effective and lasting outcomes that support California ’ s diverse and thriving ecosystems
