SUMMARY:Economic Guidance for Coastal Management Professionals
DESCRIPTION:Economic Guidance for Coastal Management Professionals\nKate Quigley and Lauren Knapp\, NOAA Office for Coastal Management \nThursday\, March 10\, 2022\n12:00-1:30pm CT/1:00-2:30pm ET\nCapacity: 75 \nRegister for Course \nTake this course if you… \n\nWant to learn some basics of economic valuation.\nPlay a role in writing and selecting proposals for coastal projects.\nWould like to advocate for the value of a project\, program\, or tool\, but unsure where to start.\n\nAbout the Course\nWhen coastal managers need to estimate project value and incorporate economic data\, they have several approaches to consider. This training provides information about a benefits-cost analysis\, economic impact analysis\, cost-effectiveness analysis\, and more. Understanding these basics will help participants identify the appropriate approach and the data needed. \nParticipants will learn how to: \n\nRecognize and understand basic economic terminology\nRecognize relevant economic approaches and analyses\nIdentify the approach to use based on project objectives\, level of expertise\, and funding\nLocate support tools and data\nConceptualize appropriate questions to ask an economist or an expert\n\nAbout the Speaker\nDr. Lauren Knapp holds a Ph.D. and postdoctoral training with 5 years of professional experience and 280+ citations on peer-reviewed publications. By training\, she is an environmental economist and employs various methods from cost-benefit analysis to ecosystem services valuation and stated preference estimation. On contract to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Office for Coastal Management (OCM)\, she helps on efforts to value marine economies\, train local communities on how to use economics to inform their decision-making\, capture benefit data for natural coastal infrastructure\, comprehensively value U.S. coral reefs\, and use economics to inform other related efforts.

Do you struggle to tell a compelling story through data visualization? Data is everywhere and charts and data graphics have never been easier to make\, thanks to programs like Excel and Tableau. But as you may have experienced in your own work\, designing elegant charts that tell a clear story can be surprisingly challenging!  \nFortunately\, we can borrow lessons from cognitive brain science and graphic design best practice to help us improve the way we display data to our audiences. This short course will provide you with some quick pointers and tips to help you improve your charts and graphics design. In this mini-workshop\, you will learn to: \n\nRecognize common chart design pitfalls\nUse handy tricks to “cut the clutter” from charts and focus your audience’s attention\nThink about every element of chart as part of a clear story\n\nAbout the Speaker\nKarina Heim is the Coastal Training Program Coordinator at Lake Superior National Estuarine Research Reserve\, and a data viz enthusiast. She first became enamored with the art of clean chartmaking in graduate school where she realized that every graph and table can stand alone and tell its own story if it is designed well. Later\, Karina applied lessons and best practices of data viz design in her work as a comprehensive plan writer\, revising public documents to reflect current data trends in a clear\, accessible way. In her current position\, she works with decision-makers in the Lake Superior basin on coastal issues\, where important ideas are spoken through data all of the time. Karina is originally from Fairbanks\, Alaska and lived in the western United States for several years before landing in the Midwest. She has a professional background in land use planning and program coordination.  \n[/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][/cs_content]

Through training and coaching\, she builds capacity for project planning\, conducting collaborative processes\, and managing visitor impact. She serves as an evaluator of coastal programs and National Estuarine Research Reserves (NERR)\, and provides facilitation services for the coastal resource management community\, including Sea Grant\, NERRs\, and other federal\, state\, and local agencies and organizations. Pam enjoys exploring coastlines and working with coastal professionals near and far. Before joining the Office for Coastal Management\, she worked in Oregon with the South Slough NERR to coordinate a public involvement program. As a faculty member with the School for Field Studies’ Center for Coastal Studies in Baja California Sur\, Mexico\, Pam collaborated with local educators to develop bioregional environmental education curricula\, and explored the interaction between the coastal communities and the marine resources of the Magdalena Bay region as they related to the fishery and conservation challenges in that area.\n \n[/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][/cs_content]

Unfortunately\, because of their popularity\, many people untrained in survey creation administer poorly designed surveys that yield questionable results. This workshop serves to provide coastal managers and environmental professionals with best practices to write more effective survey questions. If your background is not in the social sciences but you nonetheless find yourself in the position of crafting surveys\, this workshop is for you!\nWorkshop attendees will learn how to:  \n 	Review and critique surveys\, and identify common mistakes in question design\n 	Incorporate 25 best practices when creating survey questions\n 	Create appropriate question layout and design\n 	Identify ways to improve survey questions that yield desired data types \nAbout the Speakers\nChris Ellis\, PhD\, NOAA Office for Coastal Management\nChris is a social scientist with NOAA’s National Ocean Service\, based in Charleston\, SC. His training is in environmental sociology\, survey design and implementation\, recreation and tourism choice behavior\, organizational behavioral networks\, and social-psychological interaction with the coast. He has extensive experience in working with state and local municipalities to build capacity in coastal conservation\, and community resilience. He also has a portfolio of projects that lend technical assistance to the National Weather Service to enhance its social science capacity. Working currently for NOAA\, and formerly for both the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and the National Park Service\, he has gained unique perspectives of how the public and institutions understand\, perceive\, and use natural resources\, particularly in coastal areas. He is an adjunct faculty member at the College of Charleston\, where he works with students on an array of human dimensions-based research topics. Chris received his PhD in 2005 from East Carolina University.\nBrenna Sweetman\, NOAA Office for Coastal Management\nBrenna is social scientist with NOAA’s Office for Coastal Management based at the National Water Center in Tuscaloosa\, AL. Her work focuses on integrating social science to support sound decision-making to address complex coastal and water resource challenges. Through partnerships\, collaboration and the integration of social and natural sciences\, she works to better understand the data\, tool and information needs to protect and maintain coastal communities\, ecosystems and economies. Prior to working with NOAA\, she worked in Central America on coastal and marine natural resource management topics and instructed environmental education. She holds a Master’s in Geography from the University of Alabama and a Bachelor of Arts in Environmental Studies and Spanish from the University of Pittsburgh.\n\n[/cs_content_seo][/cs_column][/cs_row][/cs_section][/cs_content]
