Summary
The Pacific Islands Climate Science Center (PI-CSC) was established in 2012 to address societal impacts of climate change and variability for Department of the Interior and other natural and cultural heritage managers, community planners, and Pacific Island communities in Hawaiʻi and the U.S.-Affiliated Pacific Islands (USAPI). The USAPI includes the Territory of American Samoa, Territory of Guam, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and the Freely Associated States of the Republic of the Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, and the Republic of Palau. The PI-CSC works with scientists and resource managers to provide climate change prediction and impact data, analysis, and translational products and services geared to the needs of fish and wildlife managers and cultural stewards as they develop adaptation strategies. Some of this activity also consists of strategic-level summaries and syntheses related to aspects of climate adaptation in the region, as well as higher-level planning documents such as the 5-Year Science Agenda. The PI-CSC’s strategic syntheses and planning documents can be found in this folder.
