Service Targets $2 Million to Support Science-Management Partnerships
The U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service is targeting $2 million to support 14 projects that will boost nationwide adaptive science capacity to address climate change climate change
Climate change includes both global warming driven by human-induced emissions of greenhouse gases and the resulting large-scale shifts in weather patterns. Though there have been previous periods of climatic change, since the mid-20th century humans have had an unprecedented impact on Earth's climate system and caused change on a global scale.
Learn more about climate change and other major ecological stressors.
Ranging from downscaled-climate modeling to predicting migratory bird responses to climate change, the projects will help establish a network of landscape conservation cooperatives (LCCs), a cornerstone of the Department of the Interior
