An information session will be held on May 5 at 2pm ET and applications are due July 15. Learn more>>
Apply Now! Science Communication and Synthesis Support for Climate-Pollinator Research
The Southeast CASC is seeking two student volunteers to provide science communication and synthesis support for climate-pollinator research during the Fall 2026 and Spring 2027 academic terms. The “Semester of Service” Student Volunteer Program offers students a volunteer, project-based practical experience within Federal operations while supporting the advancement of targeted initiatives. Applications are due May 10.
RAD Decisions in Rad Landscapes: Black Ridge Canyons Wilderness
The North Central CASC is hosting a webinar to share results and lessons-learned from the Black Ridge Canyons Wilderness (BRCW) of southwest Colorado, where climate change is impacting habitat conditions for native amphibians and exacerbating adverse interactions between native and invasive amphibian species. The overarching goal of this case study was to provide BLM staff and their partners with knowledge and tools to support intentional and transparent decision-making for ephemeral riparian communities in the BRCW through climate-driven ecological transformation.
Ecological Drought Webinar: Collaborative Planning, Response, and Decision-Making
The NOAA National Integrated Drought Information System (NIDIS) and the National CASC are co-hosting a webinar series focused on ecological drought, with expert speakers from the research community, Tribal Nations, and government agencies. The next webinar in the series will focus on research and tools to improve our understanding and management of drought risk in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems to inform more deliberate and expanded decision-making that supports sustainable, healthy, and resilient ecosystems. May 13 at 3pm ET. Learn more>>
2026 Tribal Community Resilience Webinar Series
The 2026 Tribal Community Resilience Webinar Series, co-hosted by the American Indian Higher Education Consortium (AIHEC) and the Climate Adaptation Science Centers, launched in February. This monthly series explores how Tribal Nations are responding to resilience challenges across the U.S. Join the fourth webinar in the series, focused on water management. May 14 at 3pm ET.

Seminar: Assessing Patterns of Subterranean Biodiversity and Microclimates to Inform Cave Management and Conservation
Changes in cave temperatures, subterranean hydrology, and relative humidity may cause negative impacts for cave-dwelling species. This Southeast CASC seminar will highlight a project where investigators collaborated with partners across the southeastern U.S. to identify high priority caves for conservation; quantify how forest cover mediates cave microclimates; and create and evaluate a portfolio of management options for improving cave ecosystem resilience under future climate change.
