The USGS National Climate Change and Wildlife Science Center (http://nccw.usgs.gov/) was established by Congress to provide the science and technical support needed to help fish and wildlife resource managers anticipate climate change impacts and evaluate options that will facilitate adaptation to changing landscapes. The Center is based on an organizational model that includes working in close partnership with the science and resource management communities, within an adaptive management framework. Mark Sogge, Interim Director, will describe the Center's history, organization and partnership strategy, science focus, recent accomplishments, and near-term future plans.
