Project Description

Project Title:  View help for Project Title Science planning for the Aldo Leopold Wilderness Research Institute: 2021 partner input collected using Q-methodology
Summary:  View help for Summary In 2021, the Aldo Leopold Wilderness Research Institute (ALWRI) began the process to revise its charter, which outlines, in large part, the science priorities and general topic areas that will be of focus for the ALWRI for the next 10 years. To support this process, ALWRI reached out to a broad range of partners, both national and international, to understand perceptions of science priorities. This data publication includes partner input collected using Q-methodology. Specifically, it includes 31 science priorities (expressed via Q-sort) intended to span broad social-ecological issues, that could each be rated from -4 to 4 (-4 = lowest priority, 4 = highest priority). Responses were obtained from 175 partners of ALWRI and include additional characteristics of the partners (e.g., role, affiliation).
