Workshop to focus on conservation management and climate change

(University of California - Riverside) Climate change can greatly impact biological species and ecosystems, requiring land managers to develop conservation management plans to accommodate habitat shifts. Recorded data already show that some animals and plants have moved to regions where their climatic requirements are better met. To extend scientific information to managers and regulators on climate change implications for local conservation, the University of California, Riverside is hosting a daylong workshop on Tuesday, May 22.
