Culture is an important part of climate adaptation, because “adapting” implies actions taken by humans to conserve key systems and values. Science is also a critical part of adaptation, because the need and viability of actions depends on our understanding of ecosystem function and process. Indigenous or traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) is both culture and long-term place-based science. TEK, therefore, supports tribal adaptation by both framing and contextualizing climate adaptation research and action. TEK also contributes to tribally-centered understandings of ecological systems and climate change. Incorporating TEK into climate adaptation increases the likelihood that adaptation strategies will be implementable,...

Project Overview In the Midwest, climate change is forcing birds to shift their ranges, raising concerns about how well protected areas provide refuge for vulnerable bird species. Researchers supported by this Midwest CASC project will use two decades of bird monitoring data to evaluate how protected areas in the Upper Great Lakes region support birds now and in the future under changing climate and land-use conditions. The project will produce maps that identify vulnerable species and critical areas for their protection that agencies and land managers can use to prioritize conservation action in the region. Public Summary Throughout the Midwest, climate change is causing rising temperatures and extreme weather,...
