Climate Change Science and Management Webinar Series

The National Climate Adaptation Science Center is partnering with the National Conservation Training Center and the Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies to offer the "Climate Change Science and Management Webinar Series" to highlight sponsored science projects related to climate change impacts and adaptation from the National and Regional CASCs. This webinar series was developed to inform scientists, land and resource managers, and the general public about potential and predicted climate change impacts on fish and wildlife and to help guide resource management decisions across the United States. In 2019, the webinars are focused on the theme of 'Science You Can Use' to highlight the CASCs’ ready to use science products.

Instructions for joining the webinars will be provided in advance on the corresponding pages below. Video recordings with closed captioning are made available approximately 2 weeks after each presentation. 

If you have questions about the NCASC webinar series, please contact: casc@usgs.gov. Stay up-to-date about upcoming webinars by signing up for our newsletter.
