In this "RAD Perspectives" webinar, RAD (Resist-Accept-Direct) practitioners from the National Park Service, Great Lakes Indian Fish & Wildlife Commission (GLIFWC), Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, and the U.S.

Decades of invasive smallmouth bass removal from the Adirondacks resulted in a novel discovery of rapid evolution. Despite the absence of a clear physiological adaptation pathway, intensive manual removal produced a larger population of the invasive predatory fish, growing faster and maturing earlier.

Climate refugia are places that may be buffered from and likely won’t change as much under climate change. Focusing research on these areas may offer resource managers more conservation and management options.

On a scorching day in June 2022, the summer Lake Powell reached its lowest water level in five decades, National Park Service staff caught baby smallmouth bass in the lower Colorado River.

Meet the 2022-2024 cohort of the Climate Adaptation Postdoctoral (CAP) Fellows Program, focused on “The Future of Aquatic Flows”!

Megan Behnke is a Climate Adaptation Postdoctoral (CAP) fellow with the Alaska Climate Adaptation Science Center. Based out of the University of Alaska Southeast, her research explores how stream chemistry changes under new climate and stream conditions, and how these changes impact valuable fish species like salmon.

Hosted by the USGS Climate Adaptation Science Centers (CASCs), the Climate Adaptation Postdoctoral (CAP) Fellows Program supports applied research at both national and regional scales. Each two-year fellowship cohort is centered around a common climate theme. The 2022-2024 cohort is themed “The Future of Aquatic Flows.”

A webinar presented by Dr. Abigail Lynch to provide information to those interested in applying to the Diverse Knowledge Systems and Science to Action Fellowships through the USGS National Climate Adaptation Science Center.

In November 2022, the White House Office of Science and Policy released guidance on how Federal agencies can ethically acknowledge and incorporate Indigenous Knowledges (IK) into science, management, and decision-making.

From volcanologists to oceanographers, biologists to paleontologists, the U.S. Geological Survey employs thousands of scientists across the Earth sciences. Each has a unique role in supporting the bureau’s mission of providing “science that matters” to the American people.

Research Ecologist Adam Terando helps people understand how climate change may affect their communities and ecosystems by using mathematical models to “downscale” large global climate models.
