This report provides an assessment of climate change-related challenges, needs, and opportunities to advance landscape-scale conservation, climate change adaptation, and sustainable resource management in the North Pacific Landscape Conservation Cooperative (NPLCC) region. The NPLCC funded this report to inform NPLCC members, specifically the Science and Traditional Ecological Knowledge (S-TEK) Subcommittee, as they assess priorities and develop their 2013-2016 Strategy for Science and Traditional Ecological Knowledge. The report identifies conservation delivery, applied science, and science and data provision opportunities the NPLCC could consider to support resource managers, conservation practitioners, and researchers...

The overarching goal of the project was to develop overlapping conceptual models of environmental and community health indicators in reference to climate forecasts. The sensitivity of species and habitats to climate were cross-walked with recently developed Coast Salish community health indicators (e.g. ceremonial use, knowledge exchange, and physiological well-being) in order to demonstrate how Indigenous Knowledge can be used in conjunction with established landscape-level conservation indicators (e.g. shellfish and water-quality) and employed to identify resource management priorities. While results are unique to study participants, no Indigenous community in the coastal Pacific Northwest is immune to the impending...

Climate impacts potentially affect all levels of park planning and management. Climate adaptation planning seeks to identify and proactively prepare for potential climate change impacts on management sectors. Taking a proactive approach can help reduce future risks, capitalize on new opportunities, and minimize losses due to climate change. Most importantly, integrating climate impacts into park planning and management will help park managers continue to meet their mission of protecting natural and cultural resources, providing recreation opportunities, and protecting the health and safety of park visitors.

This annotated bibliography is a supplement to the Guidelines for Considering Traditional Knowledges in Climate Change Initiatives and is intended to demonstrate the ways that existing is already considering TKs in law, policy and natural resource management. Additionally, this bibliography provides access to research which addresses ongoing issues surrounding the protection and use of TKs, including appropriation of Indigenous cultural and intellectual property, legal and policy hurdles that TK users and holders face in collaborating in an equitable manner with researchers, government agencies and others, and the development of research protocols to ensure just collaboration between TK holders and researchers....

This project sought to create a targeted and easily understandable guide to tools that support landscape-level planning in the face of climate change for NPLCC partners. The guide built upon previous NPLCC research on decision support needs with an emphasis on tools currently in use in the region. A survey of NPLCC partners was used to discover who is currently using or planning to use tools in the region, tools they are using, how well these tools are meeting their needs, and regional and outside experts engaged in tool use. Additional tools research provided information on tools not currently in use in the region that could also provide needed functionality. This project used a previous study of tool functional...

Project Accomplishments: 1) A soil vulnerability index was created for the NP LCC. It is being incorporated into a visualization tool with the CA LCC in a Multi-LCC project. 2) Statistical analyses were performed on correlations between forest mortality (>50 of a stand) and soil characteristics in the NP LCC between 1997 and 2010. In California and Oregon, soil characteristics, especially available soil water storage capacity and pH were predictors in areas of tree mortality. In Washington, soil did not improve predictability of forest mortality. (unpublished) 3) New MC2 simulations were run with the AR5 data. These are available on databasin.org. 4) The new MC2 AR5 simulations were used in a sensitivity analysis...
