  1. Vegetation, erosion and runoff 2. Energy Dissipation 1. Transpiration 1. Runoff volume 2. Rainfall scour 3. Soil infiltration 4. Erosion 4. Soil Binding 3. Decomposition

  2. Downstream consequences • Clearing: increased erosion;increased runoff;reduced biodiversity Overfishing, Climate, Crown-of-Thorns, etc. Mangrove changes Coral death Algal increase

  3. Ridge to Reef Management • Addresses interactions between humans and the environment over multiples scales to preserve and restore ecosystems and ecosystem linkages

  4. Threats to Connectivity • Land use change • Population increase • Fishing pressure • Climate change
