1. Landscape Climate Change Vulnerability Project (LCC_VP) Andrew Hansen/ Montana State University Goal: Use NASA and other data and models to assess the vulnerability of habitat types and species to climate and land use change, and to evaluate management options. 1. Hindcast and Forecast future climate and land use scenarios. 2. Assess the vulnerability of habitat types and dominant tree species. 3. Evaluate management options. 4. Implement management approaches. 5. Facilitate technology transfer.
