Abstract
The classifications will be used to select ecosystems for conservation. The Nature Conservancy will begin by producing two working papers summarizing existing approaches to terrestrial and marine ecosystem classification. It will then conduct a 1-week meeting of eight experts to classify the region"s ecosystems, identify representative sites on small-scale maps, and prepare a multiple- criteria system for evaluating ecosystem classes for conservation. A final report on the classification systems, including maps, will be prepared.
