Developing Measures of Socioeconomic Resiliency in the Interior Columbia Basin. Interior Columbia Basin Ecosystem Management Project: Scientific Assessment
Measures of socioeconomic resiliency were developed for the 100 countries studied in the Interior Columbia Basin Ecosystem Project. These measures can be used for understanding the extent to which changes in policies for management of Federal lands may affect socioeconomic systems coincident with those lands. The authors found that most of the basin's residents (67 percent) live in countries with a high degree of socioeconomic resiliency; however, these countries represent only 20 percent of the land base. Whereas 68 percent of the basin is categorized as having low socioeconomic resiliency, only 18 percent of the people live in these areas. These findings allow land managers to better gauge the impacts of land management actions and to focus social and economic mitigation strategies on places of greatest need.
