Salazar Center "Connecting for Conservation" webinar seriesRegister here. Description:“How much nature do we need?” is a question the Salazar Center is working to bring to the forefront of the conservation conversation, and we’re interested in emerging ideas on this topic such as the 30×30 goal, Half Earth, and Nature Needs Half. The large landscape conservation movement…

Description:This webinar is part of the Northwest Climate Adaptation Science Center (NW CASC) Actionable Science Webinar Series.Co-producing knowledge in collaboration with decision-makers is considered a best practice for developing science that is useful and used to address today’s most urgent environmental challenges. However, traditional academic incentives, such as the expectation to publish peer-reviewed papers on…

This webinar is part of the National Adaptation Forum Webinar Series.Register here. AbstractWe all depend upon rural resources for food, water, fiber, and our economy. Extreme weather impacts rural lands and small towns but often is not addressed due to a lack of resources. Climate change accelerates the frequency and intensity of many extreme events. In…

SE CASC South Atlantic Spring/Summer Science SeriesTitle: Building Adaptive Capacity in a Coastal Region Experiencing Global ChangePresenter: Mitch Eaton, Southeast Climate Adaptation Science CenterDate: May 21, 2020Time: 10am ETDescription: Coastal ecosystems in the eastern U.S. have been severely altered by local processes resulting from human development and by global-scale ecological changes associated with climate change. These…

Register here.Presented by: Ko Barrett, IPCC Vice-Chair, and Shallin Busch, Anne Hollowed, and William Sweet of NOAADescription: Global warming has already reached 1°C above the pre-industrial level, due to past and current greenhouse gas emissions. There is strong evidence that this is resulting in profound consequences for ecosystems and people. The ocean is warmer, more…

The severe impacts of wildfires are becoming ever more apparent. Meanwhile, California Indian tribes have been using fire for centuries to maintain ecosystems. Ron Goode (Tribal Chairman of the North Fork Mono Tribe) and Beth Rose Middleton (University of California, Davis) will share their experiences from recent cultural burns in California, and explain how the traditional Native American practice…

Webinar DateTuesday, May 5 at 3:00 pm ETResourcesRegister here!SummaryChanges in phenology, or the seasonal timing of recurring life history events such as breeding, feeding, and movements, have emerged as a primary indicator of species’ responses to climate change. In terrestrial environments, shifts in phenology have been well documented; for example, earlier onset of spring and…

The Southwest Climate Adaptation Science Center (SW CASC) and Center for Climate Adaptation Science and Solutions (CCASS) are hosting a series of webinars this May focused on ecosystem resilience; specifically, the impacts of heat on ecosystems, ecosystem transformations after large-scale disturbance events, and the benefits of Native American cultural burning. The second installment, Ecosystem Transformation After…
