Desert Landscape Conservation Cooperative CMQ #1

Fish and Wildlife Service

Description

The Steering Committee of the Desert LCC has selected six critical management questions (see: http://www.usbr.gov/dlcc/resources/docs/DLCCCMQs.pdf) as their current science priorities. Critical Management Question (CMQ) 1 is: ¿How are climate change, water management, and their interaction affecting the physical processes that support springs, aquatic and riparian habitats, species, and human cultures? What are viable management options to mitigate these effects and support ecosystem functions? How can climate change, hydrological, ecological, and/or biological models be used to better understand the potential future effects of climate change, inform adaptive management, develop beneficial management practices, and create related decision support tools?¿
