The Department of the Interior announced this month its selection of the University of Alaska as the first of eight planned regional Climate Change Centers in the nation. Seven more will be selected in the next two years, all of which will be designed to give land managers more and better information to protect natural resources and cultural resources from evolving weather patterns.
This strategy also calls for 18 landscape conservation cooperatives that are supposed to look for practical solutions for managing migration patterns, threats to flora and fauna and other related impacts on a regional basin.
