3 Design in science: extending the landscape ecology paradigm 1. Links design to a standard landscape ecology paradigm. 2. Examines how design connects ecological ideas to social systems. 3. Identifies common problems that could interfere with the success of a project. by Joan Iverson Nassauer and Paul Opdam Nassauer, Opdam. Design in science: extending the landscape ecology paradigm. Landscape Ecology (23):

19 1. Links design to a standard landscape ecology paradigm. 2. Examines how design connects ecological ideas to social systems. 3. Identifies common problems that could interfere with the success of a project.
20 Potential Problems: (identifying) Appropriate Tools Source: Models or other tools may be too narrow. Source: Nassauer, Opdam. Design in science: extending the landscape ecology paradigm. Landscape Ecology (23): pg 636
21 Potential Problems: (lack of) Multidisciplinary Teamwork Disciplinary barriers may cause scientists or practitioners to reject knowledge or tools that are relevant but unfamiliar to them. Source: Nassauer, Opdam. Design in science: extending the landscape ecology paradigm. Landscape Ecology (23): pg 636 Source:
22 Potential Problems: (poor) Communication Source: Communication processes among scientists, practitioners, and society stakeholders may be inadequate to ultimately support innovation. Source: Nassauer, Opdam. Design in science: extending the landscape ecology paradigm. Landscape Ecology (23): pg 636
23 Potential Problems: (insufficient) Feedback from practice to science Source: If scientists are not involved in practical applications of scientific knowledge, they may not learn how they could improve the effectiveness of their science. Source: Nassauer, Opdam. Design in science: extending the landscape ecology paradigm. Landscape Ecology (23): pg 636
24 In Conclusion Using design as a method, scientists may act as providers of objective information, warn of societal problems, act as mediators in conflicts, or carry out an independent assessment of the effectiveness of a policy.
