Climate Change Management Briefs for 525 National Wildlife Refuges
How will climate change affect birds in national wildlife refuges? These scientific briefs by 探花精选 scientists can help refuge managers prepare.
探花精选 scientists created management briefs for 525 refuges managed by the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service. Each brief describes how projected changes in a refuge鈥檚 climate could affect its bird populations. In addition to describing high-level trends, the briefs list whether the refuge鈥檚 climate is stable, worsening, or improving for each current bird species in summer and winter, as well as those species that could potentially colonize or be extirpated from the refuge in both seasons. Finally, each brief includes recommendations for how staff might manage their refuges to prepare birds for the coming changes.
