The Nations Fish Habitat in a Changing Climate Part 2

The effects of climate change on fish habitat will be scale-and system-dependent. Our work demonstrates how climate change affects fish habitat nationwide, and stream flow, water temperature, and coldwater lakes in the Upper Midwest. Projected changes in fish habitat varied across ecoregions nationally.

Fish Habitat and Climate Change Part 1

The effects of climate change on freshwater fishes and their habitats will likely not be consistent among species or habitats so region or species-specific effects of climate change may help managers focus conservation efforts.

Overview of the Shoreline Management Tool

The Shoreline Management Tool is a GIS-based application used to assess how changes in water depth can affect an area. This includes identifying areas that may flood when water reaches a certain level or estimating how much water is available at any given time.
