Summary

The Southeast Climate Adaptation Science Center (SE CASC) promotes collaborative research, with a focus on training next-generation scientists through active engagement with stakeholders and agencies, to enhance landscape-level conservation and management of natural and cultural resources. The SE CASC is hosted by North Carolina State University (NCSU) with consortium partners Duke University, Auburn University, University of Florida, University of Tennessee, and University of South Carolina. University host NCSU connects the SE CASC to top scientists and stakeholders across the region to address the complexities of land management and conservation during rapid climate change, population growth, and urbanization. During the period of 2017 - 2021, the SE CASC consortium will strive to i) facilitate conversations among decision makers, scientists, and managers; ii) build capacity of natural resource professionals, university faculty, and students to understand and frame natural resource adaptations; and iii) provide decision-focused, research-based information that supports global change adaptation decisions. These goals will provide a framework as the consortium address five research and management areas important to the Southeast: coastal responses, ecosystem services, climate-sensitive landscapes, land use change and connectivity, and the climate, water, and energy nexus. In addition, the consortium has initiated working groups, such as the Indigenous Peoples Climate Change Working Group, as well as fellows programs such as the Global Change Fellows, to strengthen connections and train the next generation of scientists.

Each CASC is a formal collaboration between the USGS, a regional host university, and a multi-institution partner consortium. Through this agreement, the host and consortium institutions undertake a number of activities, including conducting research science projects, supporting fellows and engaging with resource management partners.
