This grant, offered by USGS, is for a research project focused on understanding how climate and land-use changes will impact the vulnerability of fish habitat across national, regional, and local scales. The primary goal is to generate 1×1 km land use projection maps, initially for the Great Lakes states and ultimately for the entire lower 48 states, which can be integrated with climate change projections. The results will be crucial for determining the biological responses of fishes to these environmental shifts. The project builds upon the ongoing National Fish Habitat Action Plan’s assessment, aiming to integrate global climate change models and predicted land-use changes into aquatic systems. Funding specifically supports the national-scale integration of fish habitat assessment with climate and land-use predictions.

| Description: | USGS is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU participant for a research project to identify how climate and land-use change will impact the vulnerability of fish habitat at national, regional, and local scales. The goal of this project is to provide land use projection maps on 1 x 1 km scale that can be integrated with projections of climate change. Land use projection maps from this project will be generated initially for the Great Lakes states, but eventually for the entire lower 48 states. Results from this project will be used to determine the biological responses of fishes to these changes. This project relies on the on-going work of the partnership-driven National Fish Habitat Action Plans (NFHAP) national assessment of fish habitat, to incorporate global climate change models and predicted land-use change to the Nations aquatic systems. Funding provided under this project will be used to develop the national scale integration of on-going fish habitat assessment and climate change and land-use predictions. |
