The Department of Interior, with partial funding from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), is offering this grant to address climate change impacts on federal trust resources, particularly Nevada’s wildlife and ecosystems. This grant is for continuing efforts to identify and assess performance indicators for climate change within the Nevada Wildlife Action Plan. Nevada has already completed the initial phase of identifying potential species indicators. This funding supports further examination of these indicators’ performance, aiding in the revision of the State’s Wildlife Action Plans to incorporate climate change considerations. The overall goal is to sustain and recover viable populations of desired wildlife and their habitats.

| Description: | Nevada BLM and Nevada Department of Wildlife share a strong commitment to management activities that sustain and recover viable populations of the state¿s desired wildlife and the ecosystems upon which they depend through the Nevada Wildlife Action Plan. The Department of Interior has initiated a major effort to address climate change and its effect on federal trust resources. As part of this effort, BLM is providing partial funding to facilitate the ability of States to work with Heinz Center to identify ecosystems and species vulnerable to climate change as well as develop methods and models to document the effects of climate change. States are charged with revising their Wildlife Action Plans to include climate change. Nevada has completed the first phase of identifying potential species indicators of climate change. This funding is the continuation of this work by examining the performance of these indicators. The Nevada Wildlife Action Plan supports management activities that sustain and recover viable populations of the state¿s desired wildlife and the ecosystems upon which they depend. |
