  1. Geodesignas a Socio-Ecological Approach to Puget Sound Recovery Integrating Science and Place Kathleen Wolf, PhD, University of Washington School of Environmental and Forest Sciences Geodesign for a Sustainable World May 2014 - PNW Geodesign Forum at UW

  2. Diverse, Complex, Connected: Social and Ecological Systems photo credits: Mary Ann Rozance "The idea of nature contains, though often unnoticed, an extraordinary amount of human history."Raymond Williams, "Ideas of Nature"

  3. Salish Sea Science primarily biophysicalreductionist, impacts not solutions

  4. Diverse, Complex, Connected:Social and Ecological Systems • Anthropogenic effects or human activity to the detriment of an ecosystem, OR • Seek to understand human behavior for sustainability and eco-recovery; e.g. conservation psychology and other social science disciplines

  5. Behavior Change Outreach • initial efforts • PS impact targets • social marketing • generic, cross Sound

  6. Public Appeals

  7. Education & Volunteerism

  8. Design?site-basedtroubleshooting

  9. A Bigger VisionUsing Geo-Design credit: Mithun evidence- based goal setting performance analytics diverse landscape contexts – urban!

  10. Place & Ecology

  11. Embrace Urbanism

  12. start with pilot projects credit: EXP Architects

  13. choose pilot sites . . . • land use • • density • • PS threats • • political will •

  14. Summary • Puget Sound is complex socio-ecological system • extensive biophysical science knowledge • recovery response? • could be: systems, place-based, integrated design & ecology, multi-dimensional performance goals and monitoring • pilot sites for place-based recovery - use geodesign to select, develop, and monitor
