The Safe Passages Project, funded by the Wildlife Conservation Society, is a highly
collaborative effort that will include the larger community involved in connectivity
analysis and implementation, such as land managers and planners, agency, academic,
and professional scientists, and the non-profit sector. The Safe Passages Project
will:
- develop a lessons learned document (covering technical, planning, implementation
and policy lessons),
- develop a white paper describing a framework for the application
of regional connectivity analysis to a statewide level,
- conduct a landscape
connectivity mapping exercise for the San Joaquin Valley, and
- model fine-scale
connectivity for one pilot area in the San Joaquin Valley.
