Methodology: Systems Observation
We do not deploy standardized solutions. Our research areas are cultivated through long-term data collection and place-based community collaboration.
Our Research Staging Model
Phase 1: Listening
Led by local partners, we conduct baseline ecological readings and map cultural priorities. This ensures our research is accountable to the community living within the watershed.
Phase 2: Validation
Phase 2: Validation
Methodologies for soil restoration and water retention are validated by scientific advisors and community assemblies to ensure they align with local livelihood needs.
Phase 3: Integration
Oversight is shared across regional scientists, youth apprentices, and indigenous knowledge holders to shape educational curricula and research protocols.
Regenerative Agriculture Observation
This initiative examines patterns in soil health and farm ecosystem recovery, documenting the relationship between agricultural practices and landscape-scale regeneration.
⦿ Field note: Current status - baseline documentation of rhizosphere biodiversity in watershed 4b.
Education & Perception
Our educational research focuses on "perception rebuilding"— documenting how individuals re-engage with local ecological observation after periods of disconnection.
Watershed Documentation
Treating watersheds as living circulatory systems, we record water retention patterns and sedimentation rates to create open-access data for land stewards.
Youth Apprenticeship Research
We document the clearing of professional and educational pathways for youth interested in regenerative land management and systems science.
Contextual Systems Science
Integrating physiological, social, and contextual data to create a "whole science" approach to human and landscape health.
Research Status
These research areas are in continuous development. Observations are peer-reviewed by local partners before public release.
