SUMMARY:Hot Science at Home: The Fate of Food
DESCRIPTION:What will we eat in a bigger\, hotter and smarter world? Climate models show that global crop production will continue to decline due to drought\, heat\, and flooding. Meanwhile\, the world’s population is expected to grow another 30 percent by midcentury. So how\, really\, will we feed nine billion people sustainably in the coming decades? Hear how Amanda Little spent three years traveling through a dozen countries and as many U.S. states in search of answers to that question. \nTime: 7:00 – 7:40 p.m. CST \nThe event includes an interactive Q&A session with Amanda Little! \nLearn More here.

SUMMARY:Nortwest CASC: Webinar - Managing Post-Fire\, Climate-Induced Vegetation Transition
DESCRIPTION:Warmer\, drier and longer fire seasons in the Northwest have led to larger and more frequent wildfires. These changes in fire activity\, combined with warmer and drier post-fire conditions\, have in turn led to growing concern that in some areas of the Northwest\, particularly in forests and shrublands east of the Cascade Range\, existing plant communities may face difficulty regrowing and persisting following fire. Some of these communities may ultimately transition to different vegetation types – for example\, from forests or shrublands to grasslands – impacting the ecological\, economic and cultural services provided by these ecosystems. In this webinar\, Northwest CASC supported researchers will present a review of current knowledge and practice around the emerging climate impact of post-fire vegetation transitions in the Northwest. This synthesis is the result of a working group process that convened natural resource managers and scientists from Northwest Tribes\, universities\, the non-profit and private sectors\, and federal\, state and local governments to collaboratively review what is currently known (and unknown) about managing climate-driven\, post-fire vegetation transitions in the Northwest. \nMarch 11 at 3:00 pm EST \nLEARN MORE HERE

SUMMARY:DEADLINE: Call for Statements of Interest for South Central CASC Research
DESCRIPTION:Deadline for Statement of Interest: Friday\, March 19\, 2021 at 5:00 PM EDT\nThe CASCs are coming together to move climate adaptation science forward through the Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 funding opportunity that will provide nearly $10 million for research to support land managers making science-based decisions. For the South Central CASC\, up to $1\,000\,000 may be available to fund FY22 projects that support our research priorities. The South Central CASC intends to fund 3-10 projects through this RFP. We also expect to fund one or two projects for up to $450\,000 for a total of three years; and the remainder of the funded projects will be up to $300\,000 and for a total of two years.\nStatements of Interest (SOIs) for projects to be initiated in FY 2022 are being accepted for the South Central CASC. Solicited projects should address high-priority natural or cultural resource management issues that benefit from climate-informed planning and adaptation management. Specific science priorities and needs for our CASC can be found in the CASC FY22 Funding Opportunity document on the CASC Research Funding Opportunity Page. \nFor questions or more information relating to SOIs for cultural resources\, contact our Tribal Liaison April Taylor (april.taylor@chickasaw.net) \nAll SOIs submitted by a South Central CASC consortium PI must also be sent to Emma Kuster (emmakuster@ou.edu)\, University Assistant Director of the South Central CASC\, prior to the SOI deadline.
