The Western Alaska LCC, the Department of Interior’s Alaska Climate Science Center​ and the Bureau of Land Management brought together 150 land and resource managers, field specialists, researchers and local knowledge experts to identify climate change related priority science/information needs for land and resource management in western Alaska. The workshop results help inform development of the LCC’s Science Strategy, which will guide the LCC’s efforts over the next ten years. The workshop was modeled in part after the 2007 WildREACH Workshop for the arctic region. Attendance was by invitation; workshop organizers sought diverse cross-program and cross-agency participation.

The Western Alaska Landscape Conservation Cooperative (LCC) held two workshops in the spring of 2011, a “Framing Workshop” with the Steering Committee in February, followed by a “Science Workshop” with very broad participation from the scientific community in April. The main goal of the Framing Workshop described in this report was to clearly define a decision support context for the LCC that could be used to structure and guide discussions about data and information needs at the Science Workshop. Having this explicit decision context also provided a basis for logically evaluating and prioritizing the identified science needs.
ScienceBase brings together the best information it can find about USGS researchers and offices to show connections to publications, projects, and data. We are still working to improve this process and information is by no means complete. If you don't see everything you know is associated with you, a colleague, or your office, please be patient while we work to connect the dots. Feel free to contact sciencebase@usgs.gov.
