The USGS, Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center (NOROCK), in collaboration with the Rocky Mountain CESU, is offering funding to investigate the effects of global climate change on freshwater ecosystems. This grant addresses the current lack of comprehensive studies on aquatic climate change impacts in the Great Northern Landscape. Building on an existing project in the transboundary Flathead River system, the research will apply new and existing techniques to combine downscaled climate spatial data with fine-scale aquatic species vulnerability assessments (invertebrates→fish), population genetic data, and remotely sensed habitat analysis. Anticipated results include identifying vulnerable populations and habitats, developing monitoring programs, informing future research needs, and creating conservation strategies to address climate change and exacerbated stressors like habitat loss.

| Description: | The USGS, Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center (NOROCK), is offering a funding opportunity is to explore the impact of global climate change on the structure and function of freshwater systems. To date, no studies have comprehensively assessed the potential effects of climate change on aquatic ecosystems in the Great Northern Landscape. The proposed research aims to build on an existing climate change research project focused on hydrologic and thermal effects on foodwebs and lotic habitats in the transboundary (US and Canada) Flathead River system. In the research new and existing techniques will be applied for combining downscaled climate spatial data with fine-scale aquatic species vulnerability assessments (invertebrates→fish), population genetic data and remotely sensed riparian and aquatic habitat analysis. Results are anticipated to have the potential to be used to identify populations and habitats most susceptible to the impacts of climate change; develop monitoring and evaluation programs; inform future research needs; and develop conservation delivery options in response to climate change and other stressors (e.g., habitat loss and invasive species) that are often complicated or exacerbated by climate change. |
