Fig. 1. Steps in the common-language indicator (CLI) development process.This paper focuses on the blue-highlighted area on the left. Arrows between left and right sides of the figure illustrate the relationship between the development of indicator language and the concurrent process of constructing a working list of valued aspects of the environment for the SAMAB region. Each helped to inform the other through analysis of small-group session responses. The values component of our research will be reported in a separate paper (Wolfe et al. in preparation).
