Table A2: Long term (2030 2100) ranks and scores from the expert elicitation rating and ranking process. Scores were normalized for each – category (five ecosystems and feasibility) and weighted evenly. The total average score is the total score for a strategy, summed across all categories. The average rank is from the elicitation process. Priority and Impact represent the final tiers in which each strategy was placed after discussions. Dark green = very high tier (priority only), light green = high tier, yellow = medium tier, red = low tier. refers to strategies “Merged” that were combined with other strategies during discussion.
