Description

Adaptation Workbook and Adaptation Strategies and Approaches. The Adaptation Workbook enables natural resource professionals to consider the potential effects of climate change on forests and to then design actions that can help reduce risk and increase the ability to cope with changing conditions. It provides a flexible process that accommodates a wide variety of geographic locations, scales, ecosystems, land uses, management goals, and ownership types. The Adaptation Workbook and Strategies and Approaches are published through the US Forest Service and Peer reviewed journals. Direct access to the tool: https://adaptationworkbook.org/
