Documentation for Task 3: Incorporate climate change forecasts into population persistence models. UMass will obtain an ‘envelope’ of downscaled global circulation data on precipitation and air temperature and incorporate these into the models in Task 1 using relationships from Task 2 in order to forecast local population persistence across climate change scenarios.

Estuarine Fish Habitat Assessment and Winter Flounder Pilot Study
-
As part of a suite of aquatic habitat assessments and tools designed to support conservation efforts in the Northeast region, the environmental consulting firm Downstream Strategies developed predictive models for estuarine habitat in Narragansett Bay and Long Island Sound, using winter flounder as the focal species to pilot the approach. This study describes the development of a flexible modeling process that can help scientists better understand the distribution, status, threats, and relative abundance of resources in dynamic aquatic habitats.

Excel Workbook: Attachment 13 to 'The Vulnerabilities of Northeastern Fish and Wildlife Habitats to Climate Change'.
-
Attachment 13 to 'The Vulnerabilities of Northeastern Fish and Wildlife Habitats to Climate Change'. This spreadsheet contains model results for all habitat types and zones analyzed in the report. Formulas support live updating of any parameters. For more detailed definitions of the numerical scores assigned to each module variable, see the individual habitat-zone analyses in the file 'HabitatVulnerabilityEvaluations-All.zip'. To find the overall vulnerability of a particular row, use the small matrix at right to match the Module 1 and 2 vulnerability values. For example, the Acadian-Appalachian Alpine Tundra - Zone 1 vulnerability scores are Vc4 and Vb5, which corresponds to an overall score of Vo5.
