Climate Change Case Studies

CDFW is working diligently to integrate climate change considerations into conservation and restoration actions on the ground. These case studies help to tell the story about how CDFW’s new and ongoing projects and programs are helping to plan for or minimize impacts associated with climate change. The case studies highlight activities related to managing for ecosystem function, working collaboratively with partners across large landscapes, managing for priority species populations, and integrating climate change into Department functions.
