Working conservation implication
What this evidence could inform
Lesion detection + photogrammetric severity trend; site-level prevalence dashboard; resolve the open severity/impact question.
This is a research and product hypothesis derived from the developing map. It is not a clinical protocol, a field-program claim, or proof that a proposed intervention works.
Corpus coverage
