摘要

Natural resource stewardship decisions are difficult for Park managers for many reasons. The combined philosophy, policy and culture of the National Park Service (NPS) emphasize avoiding or minimizing interventions that affect biological resources in Parks except when needed to restore natural conditions. In addition, politics and litigation can create pressure for action or inaction with respect to natural resource management. Parks struggle with the mandate of maintaining conditions and natural processes unimpaired and within acceptable ranges of variation that are difficult to define, in the face of local and global anthropogenic influences as well as natural ecological forces. The high value that Parks place on science to inform policy and management decisions often complicates the situation further because science does not always point to management preferences indicated by policy and tradition, and does not resolve differences in stakeholder values associated with natural resource management. Often, natural resource stewardship issues are framed as science issues when in reality the core of the issue is a values conflict that science cannot resolve. In this paper we lay out the core logic and components of a Park-level approach to reviewing application of NPS natural resource policy, science, and management and the political climate in which they function. We regard these elements as spheres of influence; or the origins of perceived need to evaluate natural resource stewardship in a Park. We address the spheres of influence from the standpoint of reviewing how changes in any one may affect natural resource stewardship in a Park. Our goal is to provide a general framework to help natural resource managers think about comprehensive review of natural resource stewardship at the Park level. We do not provide a set of prescriptions, but instead pose questions to guide thinking and analysis.
