Abstract: The North Pacific Landscape Conservation Cooperative (NPLCC) has developed a web-based, interactive climate change impacts map for accessing summary information on climate change impacts on aquatic, marine, and terrestrial ecosystems in the NPLCC’s various ecoregions. Impacts information for the map is drawn from three synthesis reports prepared by the National Wildlife Federation between 2011 and 2013 for the NPLCC. To date, content related to aquatic/riparian and marine/coastal ecosystems has been added to the Interactive Climate Map. This project will fund development of summary information from the final report, Climate Change Effects and Adaptation Approaches for Terrestrial Ecosystems, Habitats, and Species, for inclusion in the online map-based delivery system.
