This report describes the scientific work done by the staff of the Gulf Coastal Plains and Ozarks Landscape Conservation Cooperative in developing a region-wide Blueprint for Conservation. The Blueprint is based on ecological assessments of eight of the nine priority systems described in our Integrated Science Agenda. Dozens of geospatial datasets were used to map fifty-seven landscape endpoints understood to be desired by species of conservation concern. The report includes and assessment of the input datasets. I wrote the text of the report, generated the maps and figures, and assisted our communications director, Gregg Elliot, with layout and formatting. The full report can be accessed at this link.
