Riparian Climate-Corridors; Identifying Priority Areas for Conservation in a Changing Climate

Meeting Date: 6/13/2014

Location: Webinar


9am-11am - John Pierce and Cynthia Wilkerson (Wildlife Program) are sponsoring a talk by Dr. Meade Krosby, discussing a recent research project to identify riparian areas across the Pacific Northwest resilient to climate change – those that span large temperature gradients, have high canopy cover, low solar insolation, and low levels of human modification. The research team found that riparian climate adaptation potential varies greatly across the region, and is sensitive to scale of analysis. The report therefore describes a multi-scale approach to implementing and interpreting the riparian climate-corridor model. Space is limited – if interested in attending please contact Cynthia ().
