Summary

WDFW will use funds provided by the NPLCC to integrate climate change impacts and implications into our State Wildlife Action Plan (SWAP) Revision. We will secure appropriate expertise to review existing research and tools, including products prepared as part of the Pacific Northwest Vulnerability Assessment, and extract and apply information that is relevant to specific components of our SWAP. Our intent is to integrate climate change throughout the SWAP Revision.Our goal for the SWAP is to evaluate climate change threats and actions not as a stand-alone concept but in the context of existing stressors and conservation challenges.

Purpose

The intent of this project is to ask the “so what” questions. How should our conservation priorities shift because of what we are learning about climate change through vulnerability assessments and other research projects? How can we select priorities to address species recovery needs, which will also create resilience to expected climate change impacts? How should the climate sensitivity of habitats affect our management of the species within them? These questions require a deeper look into existing research, and staff expertise and time to conduct appropriate analyses.
