Webinar: Wildlife Response to Climate Change

Meeting Date: 4/16/2014

Location: Webinar


Using the American pika (Ochotona princeps) as a model, scientists are illustrating the nuanced ways by which climate changes are already affecting wildlife and some of the most protected, but least understood ecosystems in the western United States. U.S. Geological Survey Research Ecologist Dr. Erik Beever will discuss the collaborative effort that has collected data on wildlife and microclimate across western mountains for 21 years.
