Stream Temperature Database & High-resolution NorWeST Climate Scenarios

Register for the webinar here
Are you interested in stream temperatures in the Pacific Northwest and how climate will affect aquatic resources?
 

Please join us Wednesday Jan 28th, from 10-11am (Pacific) for an NPLCC Science-Management Webinar "Stream temperature database & high-resolution NorWeST climate scenarios" with presenter Dan Isaak of the U.S. Forest Service.

The NPLCC provided funding to expand this project, originally funded by the Great Northern LCC in ranges east of the NPLCC footprint, into the coastal ranges of northern California, Oregon and Washington. 

This project collected existing stream temperature data from numerous federal, state, tribal, and private sources (see contributors) to develop an integrated regional database. Spatial statistical models for river networks will be applied to these data to develop an accurate model that predicts stream temperature for all fish-bearing streams in the US portion of the NPLCC. Differences between model outputs for historic and future climate scenarios will be used to assess spatial variation in the vulnerability of sensitive fish species across the NPLCC.

Space is limited, please register through the button above. If you are unable to attend the webinar, a recording will be available on our YouTube Channel shortly after and we will send out viewing information to all who register.

About the Presenter
Dr. Dan Isaak
Dr. Isaak is a Research Fish Biologist with the U.S. Forest Service. He focuses on understanding effects of climate change on stream habitats and fish communities, development and implementation of basin scale and regional monitoring programs for bull trout and other aquatic organisms. He received an MS in Fisheries Resources from University of Idaho, and a Ph.D in 
Zoology and Physiology from University of Wyoming. Dr. Isaak also runs a Climate Aquatics Blog
