This two-year project will use the Service First Authority to assist two communities in Hawai’i to develop resilience plans in partnership with Native Hawaiian, State, and Federal organizations. This partnership will build on existing DOI-supported projects that already have begun to articulate the resilience and adaptive capacity of Hawai’i’s ecosystems, such as the President’s Resilient Lands and Waters Initiative and the Pacific Islands Climate Change Cooperative (PICCC) Hawaiian Islands Terrestrial Adaptation Initiative. It aligns with the Service First goals of enhancing mission delivery through interagency collaboration and improving operational efficiency by bringing together knowledge, information, and decision...

The Pacific Islands Landscape Conservation Cooperative (PILCC), better known as the Pacific Islands Climate Change Cooperative, is one of 22 LCCs established by Secretarial Order No. 3289, which focus on on-the-ground strategic conservation efforts at the landscape level. LCCs are management-science partnerships that inform integrated resource-management actions addressing climate change and other stressors within and across landscapes.
Climate change vulnerability is the degree to which a species is susceptible to adverse impacts of climate change based on exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity. A vulnerability assessment (VA) is a tool that helps resource managers identify which populations are most at risk by evaluating whether key traits will negatively or positively affect a species. In this study, I conducted a literature review of climate change research using online databases to find evidence as to why particular species traits make species more or less likely to decline. After a comprehensive literature search, of 55 articles found, only 15 contained information linking specific species traits to differences in climate change vulnerability....

Fragmentation of climate change management authorities, as well as overlapping mandates between agencies, is common. This poses a particular challenge when it comes to preparing for climate change. Increasing the integration of adaptation strategies across departments will help climate change preparation work as it goes forward. Key opportunities for engagement on climate change preparations in U.S. Affiliated Pacific Islands are recommended below according to sector. For each opportunity, important government offices for engagement are provided in Chapter 8.

This report is published as one of a series of technical inputs to the National Climate Assessment (NCA) 2013 report. The NCA is being conducted under the auspices of the Global Change Research Act of 1990, which requires a report to the President and Congress every four years on the status of climate change science and impacts. The NCA informs the nation about already observed changes, the current status of the climate, and anticipated trends for the future. The NCA report process integrates scientific information from multiple sources and sectors to highlight key findings and significant gaps in our knowledge. Findings from the NCA provide input to federal science priorities and are used by U.S. citizens, communities,...
