Applications in Action

Real-world examples of how Sentinel Landscapes are using resilience scoring to inform conservation and restoration decisions

Case Study 1

Camp Ripley Sentinel Landscape

A 53,000-acre regional training center in central Minnesota situated within one of the state’s most intact working landscapes. The Resilience Scorecard evaluates parcel-level capacity to withstand drought, extreme heat, flooding, wildfire, and land degradation, helping partners strengthen natural infrastructure and sustain long-term mission readiness.

Hazards Assessed: Drought, Extreme Heat, Riverine Flooding, Wildfire, Land Degradation
Area Analyzed: 8,540 parcels within the 3-mile REPI Agreement area
Key Outcome: Identifies resilience anchors and priority parcels for protection and restoration

Case Study 2

Fort Huachuca Sentinel Landscape

A high-desert landscape in southeastern Arizona that supports the U.S. Army Intelligence Center of Excellence and a major range test facility. The scorecard guides water conservation, wildfire mitigation, and conservation easements that maintain compatible land uses and protect airspace.

Hazards Assessed: Drought, Extreme Heat, Riverine Flooding, Wildfire, Land Degradation
Area Covered: Regional watershed parcels
Key Outcome: Identified priority areas for water and fuel management

Case Study 3

Avon Park Sentinel Landscape

Centered on the Avon Park Air Force Range in south central Florida, a major air-to-ground training venue within the Florida Wildlife Corridor and Everglades headwaters. The scorecard aligns military readiness with working lands, aquifer protection, and globally unique ecosystems by limiting incompatible development.

Hazards Assessed: Drought, Extreme Heat, Riverine Flooding, Wildfire, Land Degradation
Area Covered: 106,638-acre range and regional working lands
Key Outcome: Informed wetland and habitat restoration priorities
