Habitat Climate Change Vulnerability Index Applied to Major Vegetation Types of the Western Interior United States

2019-05-22

Abstract excerpt

We applied a framework to assess climate change vulnerability of 52 major vegetation types in the western United States to provide spatially-explicit input to adaptive management decisions. The framework addressed climate exposure and ecosystem resilience; the latter derived from analyses of ecosystem sensitivity and adaptive capacity. Measures of climate change exposure used observed climate change (1981-2014) an...
