DESCRIPTION
Citation preview
An Integrated Monitoring System for Agricultural Landscapes• Ecosystem Services• Agricultural Production• Human Wellbeing
For decision making
Co – location of data in space and time – to assess tradeoffs and synergies
Use of existing systems and data as much as possible – often adding the environmental components
Ownership by governments to link with national data collection efforts
Build national capacity on data collection, storage, analysis and use
Integrated Monitoring of Agricultural Landscapes
DECISION -SUPPORT INDICATORSa small set of indicators for decision making
ANALYSISmathematical models and algorithms are applied
MEASUREMENTconsistent metrics gathered on the ground and remotely via satellites

Sampling Framework: Measurement Scales
Tiers 1 and 2 Tiers 3 and 4
Sampling Framework• Tier 1 – simple measures, complete regional coverage at moderate
resolution, based on models and remote sensing– Land cover, vegetation type, biomass, modeled NPP – yields
• Tier 2A -1 ha plots, in situ detail, statistically valid sample - to validate Tier 1 and measure things not ‘seen’ by RS (250-500 plots sampled;
• Tier 2B: 500+ HHs depending on national surveys• Population, disaggregated national statistics
• Tier 3 – Flow based, continuous sampling – weather station, hydrological flows
• Tier 4 – Process-oriented studies at high resolution- – Five to ten 10X10 km landscapes per region – 30-40 households per landscape with associated fields
