Presented by Mindy Clarke (CEMML) and Paul Jurena (Air Force Civil Engineer Center / Environmental Quality Technical Support Branch) at the National Military Fish and Wildlife Association’s 2019 annual meeting and training workshop. In 2016, the Air Force Civil Engineer Center’s (AFCEC) Natural Resources Panel collaborated with CEMML to implement a climate change assessments and adaptations effort for 69 installation INRMPs. This talk will cover brief methodology on assessments, give examples of climate change adaptation recommendations from several installations and discuss how installations can use data provided with reports for on-going management needs.
