Opportunity Information: Apply for 10HQPA0059
The USGS Alaska Science Center is offering a grant for research focused on the impacts of climate change on the winter ranges of arctic caribou in North West Alaska. This research aims to understand how future fire regimes and the expansion of shrublands and forests may alter the landscape characteristics that caribou depend on during winter. Given that wildfires significantly shape the boreal forests and tundra habitats, these winter ranges are expected to undergo substantial transformations due to climate-driven changes.
The project will utilize downscaled climate scenarios to simulate landscapes within the winter ranges of four specific arctic caribou herds: Western Arctic, Teshekpuk, Central Arctic, and Porcupine. The simulations will cover an area from the Yukon River north to the foothills of the Brooks Range, spanning from the Seward Peninsula to northwestern Canada, with a modeling resolution of 1 km². Researchers will assess trends in the geographic distribution of forests and tundra that can support the forage lichens necessary for caribou during the winter months.
As climate change accelerates in Alaska, there’s a pressing need for detailed, localized climate predictions that can inform habitat and species management. This research will offer valuable insights into the potential ecological responses to climate change, which are essential for developing effective adaptation and mitigation strategies.Apply for 10HQPA0059
