Data

Statistical downscaling methodology was applied to global atmosphere reanalysis, using a 10 year dynamical modeled output as training data, to extend a record of wind and humidity back through the satellite era beginning 1979 or 1980. To extend the record of weather to cover a longer period and thus a greater number of significant fire weather events, statistical downscaling was implemented using

The objectives for these data are to characterize seasonal and spatial patterns of drought propagation across a set of seven watersheds in the western United States. These watersheds vary in aridity, contain extensive elevation gradients, and support river systems with long-term gage data. We used a soil water balance model SOILWAT2 with soil physical structure from POLARIS and daily weather data

Spawning salmon provide marine derived resources to freshwater ecosystems that can benefit stream-dwelling fish foraging and growth. Pink salmon are widely distributed throughout watersheds along the north pacific ocean, and display distinct biennial fluctuations in spawning abundance. These data were collected from a coastal watershed in northern southeast Alaska (Montana Creek) to explore the hy

Product Description: This dataset provides maps of peak biomass carbon stock (C) in gC/m2 and net primary productivity (NPP) in gC/m2/yr of coastal herbaceous wetlands at a resolution of 30 m across the conterminous United States (CONUS) for 2015. Aboveground, belowground, and total peak biomass C and NPP are provided for tidal herbaceous wetlands. Data is presented for 1. all herbaceous/emergent

Understanding how climate change will contribute to ongoing declines in sagebrush ecological integrity is critical for informing natural resource management. We assessed potential future changes in sagebrush ecological integrity under a range of scenarios using an individual plant-based simulation model, integrated with remotely sensed estimates of current sagebrush ecological integrity. The simul

Global climate models (GCMs) are computationally intensive, physics-based research tools used to simulate the climate system. GCM can also be useful in applied research contexts with the use of statistical downscaling techniques. This collection of statistically downscaled climate projections includes 7 sets of SD-processed CMIP5 projections and 12 sets of SD-processed CMIP6 projections of daily h

Data include lengths, observations on piscivory, and hatch dates for age-0 largemouth bass in Wisconsin lakes with predicted total length (TL) if the fish would have hatched 7 days earlier or 7 days later.

Globally, freshwater fishes are among the taxa most vulnerable to climate change but are generally understudied in tropical island ecosystems where climate change is predicted to alter the intensity, frequency, and duration of extreme flow events. These changes may impact stream ecosystems and native and non-native biota in complex ways. We compiled an extensive dataset of fish assemblages collect

We mapped potential climate change refugia for riparian areas in the central and western USA for 2040-2069 and 2070-2099. Riparian refugia are existing riparian areas that are projected to maintain riparian vegetation and associated ecological function under plausible future climates. Four input variables were included in the riparian refugia index: two landscape variables that represent where exi

We simulated future patterns of urban growth using the FUTure Urban-Regional Environment Simulation (FUTURES; Meentemeyer et al., 2013) version 2 framework. FUTURES is an open source urban growth model designed to address the regional-scale ecological and environmental impacts of urbanization; it is one of the few land change models that explicitly captures the spatial structure of development in

Policy-relevant flood risk modeling must capture interactions between physical and social processes to accurately project impacts from scenarios of sea level rise and inland flooding due to climate change. Here we simultaneously model urban growth, flood hazard change, and adaptive response using the FUTure Urban-Regional Environment Simulation (FUTURES) version 3 framework (Sanchez et al., 2023).

The Climate Adaptation Science Centers (CASCs) partner with natural and cultural resource managers, tribes and indigenous communities, and university researchers to provide science that helps fish, wildlife, ecosystems, and the communities they support adapt to climate change. The CASCs provide managers and stakeholders with information and decision-making tools to respond to the effects of climat
