Description
Summary:"The Blue Mountains Adaptation Partnership (BMAP) is a science-management partnership consisting of Malheur, Umatilla, and Wallowa-Whitman National Forest, and Pacific Northwest Research Station and Pacific Northwest Region of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service; the University of Washington; and the Climate Impacts Research Consortium at Oregon State University. These organizations worked together over a period of 2 years to identify climate change issues relevant to resource management in the Blue Mountains region and to find solutions that can minimize negative effects of climate change and facilitate transition of diverse ecosystems to a warmer climate. The BMAP provided education, conducted a climate change vulnerability assessment, and developed adaptation options for federal agencies that manage 2.1 million hectares in northeast Oregon, southeast Washington, and a small portion of southwest Idaho"--Page [iii].
