SUMMARY:FY 2024 Projects Lightning Talks: An Introduction to select South Central CASC-Funded Projects
DESCRIPTION:The South Central Climate Adaptation Science Center (SC CASC) recently chose eight new research projects. These projects will contribute to climate adaptation efforts in the south-central region of Oklahoma\, Texas\, New Mexico\, and Louisiana. The initiatives will support efforts such as Tribal climate adaptation goals\, addressing wetland adaptation management\, controlling invasive plants\, and assessing the impacts on water resources. \nHear from three of our PIs to learn more about their funded projects. \nHamed Gholizadeh from Oklahoma State University\, the agroecosystems project\, “Optimizing Invasive Plant Management in Grasslands\,” focuses on the invasive plant Lespedeza cuneata. By integrating remote sensing and climate sciences\, this project will deliver actionable information for effective management of this invasive species in grassland ecosystems\, helping to preserve native biodiversity and ecosystem health. \nJeremy Ross from the University of Oklahoma leads one of the two cultural projects titled\, “Empowering Tribal Nations to Plan for Extreme Climate Change Threats.” This initiative will collaborate with Indigenous horticulturalists and Tribal nations to create an Extreme Climate Action Plan for Culturally Important Agroecosystems (ECAPCIA). By leveraging Indigenous knowledge and values\, the project aims to strengthen water resilience and preserve culturally important agroecosystems. \nKathryn Powlen from the USGS – OK/TX Water Science Center is leading the other cultural project\, “Identifying Opportunities to Strengthen Climate Resilience in Flood-Prone Underserved Communities.” Focusing on Harris County\, Texas\, this project will develop a flood vulnerability assessment and examine distributive equity in flood mitigation efforts. By modeling flood exposure and analyzing mitigation investments\, the project will prioritize vulnerable areas for future mitigation projects\, ensuring equitable and effective flood risk reduction. \n  \nYou are invited to a Zoom meeting.\nWhen: Nov 4\, 2024 11:00 AM Central Time (US and Canada) \nRegister in advance for this meeting:\nhttps://oklahoma.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJMvc-qspj4pGNSC2uniNiRdeBM8H4a6EIxR \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.

SUMMARY:Nature-based Solutions Webinar Series - Building Coastal Adaptive Capacity through Nature-based Solutions
DESCRIPTION:This five-part webinar series features projects funded by the Climate and Societal Interactions (CSI) Division’s Adaptation Sciences (AdSci) and Climate Adaptation Partnerships (CAP) programs focused on the research and application of nature-based solutions (NbS)\, which are actions to protect\, sustainably manage\, or restore natural or modified ecosystems to address societal challenges\, simultaneously providing benefits for people and the environment. Increasing communities’ capacity to adapt to climate change can take many forms–this webinar features two presentations that relate to increasing coastal adaptive capacity. The first\, funded by AdSci\, will provide an overview of how a community is working to increase their coastal adaptive capacity and community resilience to sea level rise through workshops and vulnerability assessments that identify potential adaptation pathways\, funding opportunities\, and data needs. The second project featured will be from the West CAP team\, the California-Nevada Climate Adaptation Program\, highlighting their approach to providing technical assistance and integrating regional data and projections for sea level rise\, coastal storm flooding\, and beach erosion. This work aims to assist with developing adaptation pathways and strategies\, including dunes as NbS\, and co-produces and integrates climate\, social science research\, and Indigenous stewardship to support the advancement of effective and equitable sea-level rise adaptation planning with several collaborators across Southern California. \nRegister here: https://register.gotowebinar.com/register/779614658690072411

SUMMARY:Nature-Based Solutions Webinar Series 5 - Challenges and Opportunities of Scaling Nature-Based Solutions for Climate Adaptation
DESCRIPTION:This five-part webinar series features projects funded by the Climate and Societal Interactions (CSI) Division’s Adaptation Sciences (AdSci) and Climate Adaptation Partnerships (CAP) programs focused on the research and application of nature-based solutions (NbS)\, which are actions to protect\, sustainably manage\, or restore natural or modified ecosystems to address societal challenges\, simultaneously providing benefits for people and the environment. \nNature-based solutions including green infrastructure (NbS/GI) have been implemented for some time as a multifunctional\, decentralized strategy for stormwater management. Locally\, the benefits and co-benefits of these systems are well quantified. However\, to address regional climate risks\, NbS/GI need to be upscaled in non-trivial ways across urbanized landscapes. This upscaling poses several formidable physical\, economic\, and collaboration-related challenges. Addressing these challenges represents one of the front lines in advancing comprehensive resilience and sustainability planning. This webinar episode will feature how Franco Montalto\, CAP’s Consortium for Climate Risk in the Urban Northeast (CCRUN)\, has leveraged funding from CAP and AdSci to advance science to support local action and adaptation at a broader scale. \nRegister here: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/3145418435073976928
