Human systems.png

Part of this wiki describes human systems. We organize ourselves into workgroups. These workgroups tap into shared resources to complete efforts, defined by a scope and schedule. Often we create documents to memorialize our efforts and teach others our knowledge, about different topics. Conservation wrok is often tied to place.

You can create a new page to describe your corner of our human system.

Workgroups

Workgroups define themselves. They are a group of people that regularly talk, and share work toward a common goal. Workgroups may create a category using an acronym or abbreviation so they can quickly tag pages that they are associated with. We start defining our human systems by identifying workgroups and what ther are doing. Workgroups may develop effort pages to decribe complex projects.

Effort Icon.jpg

Efforts

Efforts are what workgroups do to acheive their goals. It could be restoration, planning or research. Efforts relate to topics, and can generate documents, and may be specific to places.

Resource Icon.jpg

Resources

Resources include the various tools and technologies that workgroups can use in their efforts. Resources are 'free standing', and don't require labor, a technical assistance of funding program is an effort.

Document Icon.jpg

Documents

Documents are reports, articles or other pieces of writing. A document page may describe a file loaded on the wiki, or it might link to another on-line source (perhaps Google Scholar). You can cite document pages as you write.

Topic Icon.jpg

Topics

Topic pages are used to synthesize evidence and postulates about particular subject. Different authors may add statements and citations. The discussion tab may have additional talk about the strengths and weaknesses of topic page content.

Place Icon.jpg

Places

Our ecosystem model divides the landscape into units based on regional assessments. But people define place as they will at a variety of scales. Place pages describe the places surrounding or within our ecosystem site framework. Linking our wiki pages to spatial maps is the next step in our development.
