How can wetlands help communities be resilient to climate change?
Climate change modelers predict that severe storms will be on the rise, making the need for affordable and effective water management (such as wetlands) all the more urgent.
How will climate change affect groundwater and runoff into wetlands?
Trying to predict how climate change will affect wetlands dependent on groundwater is a complex problem.
How can wetlands provide resilience against climate change?
Wisconsin wetlands can sequester large amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and keep the rate of ongoing climate change slower than it would be without these wetlands.
How will wetlands be affected by climate change?
Climate change is predicted to affect many environmental factors, all of which will affect wetlands.
Adapting wetlands to climate change
How can we help Wisconsin’s wetlands in the face of climate change? Wetland professionals gathered after the Wetland Science Conference to discuss.
