This climate change adaptation workshop is one piece of a larger project entitled the Northern California Climate Adaptation Project,
a collaborative effort between EcoAdapt, the U.S. Forest Service
Pacific Southwest Region, and the Bureau of Land Management -
California. The purpose of this project is to conduct
a vulnerability assessment and develop climate-smart adaptation
strategies for focal resources (habitats, species, species groups) of
northwestern California, with a specific focus on the Six Rivers,
Klamath, Shasta-Trinity, and Mendocino National Forests and Arcata, Redding, and portions of the Ukiah BLM field office areas.
The goal of this workshop
is to develop specific implementation plans for high-priority adaptation
strategies, focused on specific sites, projects, and/or focal resources.
Participants will also review and evaluate adaptation strategies and actions
compiled during previous workshops and from outside sources in order to support
the identification strategies and actions that should be prioritized for
implementation.

Workshop Presentation:
- Vulnerability Assessment, Mapping, and Adaptation Strategies for Northern California (presented by Laura Hilberg, EcoAdapt)
Workshop Proceedings:
The Adaptation Implementation Workshop Proceedings
summarize the activities and outcomes of the Northern California
Adaptation Implementation Workshops held for the Redding and
Eureka/Arcata regions in November 2021. The report includes an overview
of climate adaptation planning and a description of the workshop
activities, then presents adaptation implementation plans created by
workshop participants for six priority sites within the northwestern
California study area.
