2 History Spokane County Biodiversity Networks Pierce Guide land purchases Public education and outreach Identify smaller biodiverse areas complementing the larger network Integrate other projects and efforts that wouldn t be considered at a larger scale All efforts relate to regional perspective
3 Pierce County Biodiversity Management Network linked with riparian corridors
4 Pierce County Questions How do you implement the biodiversity management plan? What do you tell the landowners? How do you know the Network is working? Answers... Bioblitz NatureMapping
5 A Biodiversity Blitz (BioBlitz) is: a rapid biological inventory of all organisms found in a designated area during a limited timeframe usually 24- hours
6 Preparation Decide the type of Bioblitz: Educational Inventory Lists Data for Management 3-6 Months of Planning Funding Advertisement Location for Science Central Food Supplies: Volunteer Experts Permits/Insurance
7 Bioblitz Data Management Taxonomic Groups Inventoried Slugs Birds Herps Mammals Diving Terrestrial Invertebrates Aquatic Invertebrates Plants Trees Invasive plants Micro-organisms Fungi Hymenoptera (Bees) Bryophytes (Ferns) Central Park invasive plants
8 Bioblitz Data Management NatureMappers inventorying the nearshore were out in low tide. The aerial photo was taken at high tide. Most people stayed on the path leading to the beach Cape Cod
9 Purpose of a Washington State BioBlitz Confirm WA-GAP s predicted species on private lands within the network Engage and educate the local public Publicly showcase the ecological importance of the area Establish baseline data for future research and conservation initiatives Educate and empower the local community on becoming stewards of their surrounding environment
