Models predicting recent historical and future climate suitability for over 350 terrestrial animal species, 11 tree species, and 100 ecosystems are being developed for the Pacific Northwest Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment.  These models are being developed using a correlative statistical approach, and will predict climate suitability for recent historical (1961-1990) …

We will use spatially explicit population models to simulate the potential impacts of climate change on populations of 12 focal species in the Pacific Northwest. The HexSim (www.hexsim.net) modeling framework allows us to simulate species-specific population dynamics on current and future modeled landscapes. The HexSim model also simulates dispersal events …

The goal of the Climate Adaptation Case Studies is to inform on-the-ground management and planning with data and tools for assessing climate vulnerability. This project will apply the results of our on-going climate change vulnerability assessment to the management of four complex landscapes within the North Pacific and Great Northern …
