SUMMARY:Wildfire Probability Mapping Based on Regional Soil Moisture Models - Dr. Matthew Levi
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, July 7th at 11 am CT – The Southern Plains Climate Science Center is hosting Dr. Matthew Levi\, Assistant Professor of Soil Science at the University of Georgia\, and Co-PI on the South Central CASC-funded project Wildfire Probability Mapping Based on Regional Soil Moisture Models. Join us to learn about some recent advances in predicting soil moisture in the Red River and Rio Grande Basins and how it could lead to an improved understanding of wildfire across the region and benefit fire managers. \nBe sure to join us by registering here.

SUMMARY:Earth to Sky Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Registration is now open! \nJoin us for three days of training with native informal educators from across the South Central Region who recognize the importance of teaching climate change. This workshop will be packed with exciting topics and fun activities for you to bring back to your community\, including;  \n\nNASA Arctic & Earth Signs Training \nNASA Living Landscape Project \nShar-A-Thon of Youth Activities \nField Trip to Chickasaw National Recreation Area \n\nWhen & Where  \nJuly 20-22\, 2022  \nChickasaw Retreat and Conference Center  \n4205 Goddard Youth Camp Road  \nSulphur\, OK 73086  \nTravel Support is available!  \nContact April.Taylor@chickasaw.net to be notified when registration begins  \nParticipants are encouraged to register with teams of relevant collaboration. (Ex. Tribal Environment and Education Staff) You will work with these teams to develop plans to implement these trainings in your tribe! \n  \n  \nEarth to Sky (ETS) is a partnership between NASA\, NPS\, and USFWS that enables and encourages informal educators to access and use relevant NASA science\, data\, and educational & outreach products in their work. The partnership’s focus is on climate change science and communication.

SUMMARY:CLIMATE CHANGE AND CLIMATE ADAPTATION TRAINING FOR GRASSLANDS CONSERVATION PRACTITIONERS
DESCRIPTION:To learn more about the Grasslands Training events\, and to see past event recordings\, please see this page. \nNorth American grasslands are a regional priority of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS). The South Central CASC\, in partnership with the US FWS Science Applications Program\, the Northwest CASC\, and the North Central CASC\, will be implementing a training series for grasslands conservation practitioners starting in May 2022. Through our training series\, we will introduce practitioners to the science of climate change\, explore the impacts\, and discuss adaptation options available. \nTo this end\, we have created several pieces of training to facilitate grasslands conservation practitioners’ knowledge both online and in-person. \n\nMay 16-27\, 2022 – Introduction to the Basics of Climate Change. Designed for grasslands managers (online course). There will be a live group activity on May 27th at 2:30 pm central. \nJune 13\, 2022 (11:00 am central) – Overview of Climate Change Impacts to Grasslands Ecology (Webinar) \nJuly 20th at 2pm Central Time / 1pm Mountain Time / 12pm Pacific Time – Understanding and Using Future Projections for Landcover Changes (Webinar) Register Here \nCentral North American grassland ecosystems are projected to experience transitions at fine and coarse scales resulting from climate change and human land uses. Following the first two sessions of this series (climate change fundamentals\, grassland climate projections\, and phenology)\, this session will focus on landcover/vegetation responses to future climates. Themes include drought impacts\, changes in water availability\, and woody plant encroachment. Three summary presentations by climate scientists will be followed by grassland manager dialogs (via breakout rooms) that build knowledge among grassland conservation practitioners. Participants will be rewarded with information on cutting-edge grassland-climate science and the opportunity to engage peers in solution-finding. \n\nAugust 31st at 1pm Central Time / 12pm Mountain Time / 11am Pacific Time – Understanding and Using Future Projections for Trust Species (Webinar) Register Here \nFor the past half-century\, grassland birds have been declining faster than any other group of birds. Habitat loss and degradation are driving many of these declines\, but the emerging threat of climate change and associated increases in extreme events pose even more challenges. Using grassland birds as a case study\, we will discuss new research on how climate change impacts grassland birds\, from range shifts to demographic consequences. We will also explore ongoing efforts to identify how climate adaptation strategies can increase the resilience of grassland birds to future climate change. \nFall 2022 – In-person Climate Adaptation Workshop (Invitation only) \n\nPlease check back for further information and registration details.

SUMMARY:Regional Early Career Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The South Central CASC is proud to present the 2022 Regional Early Career Workshop. This year we will be at The University of Oklahoma in Norman\, OK from July 24-29th. This training will include: \nScience communication strategies and engagement with decision makers. \nField trips and immersive case studies focusing on the region and sites impacted by weather and climate extremes. \nTeam building: sharing research\, round-table discussions\, and professional development activities. \nApplicants should be graduate students\, post-docs\, or early career researchers who are conducting climate-related research of relevance to the south-central US. \nTransportation and lodging provided. Subsistence funding is available during training hours. \nFor more details\, and to register\, please click here. The application deadline has been extended and is now due by 5 pm central time on Friday\, April 29\, 2022.
