Information About the Project/ Document Effects of global change drivers differ by place and in scale, necessitating place-specific impacts information to enable stakeholders to respond appropriately. Place and scale also determine appropriate adaptation strategies and expected outcomes. This report is a synthesis of three watershed case-study assessments conducted by Global Change Research Program (GCRP) to advance the capability of managers to consider climate and land use change in watershed management decisions. The goal of this report is three-fold: (1) To understand the potential impacts of global changes and the availability of effective responses at the watershed scale across different geographic regions, (2) to learn how GCRP and other research programs might improve the process of conducting future assessments, and (3) VerDate Aug<31>2005 17:15 Aug 09, 2007 Jkt 211001 to improve GCRP’s and other research programs’ understanding about effective ways to inject climate change impacts and adaptation information into decision-making processes. Toward that end, this report compares and contrasts methods and processes employed by the three case study teams to learn effective analytic, project management, and decision support approaches. II.

Information About the Project/ Document This report describes projected effects of climate change on aquatic ecosystems and provides a preliminary analysis of possible effects on river and stream bioassessment programs. The report is intended for managers and scientists working on biological indicators, bioassessment, and biocriteria to provide them with information on the potential effects of climate change on indicator organisms used, initial strategies for adapting their programs to accommodate these environmental changes, and highlight possible next steps. The first step described in the report is an approach for identifying biological indicators sensitive to climate change; a case study next analyzes bioassessment data to detect possible climate change effects; and, finally, another analysis discusses methods for continuing to detect impairment under climate change. The results show that (1) Some biological indicators may be particularly sensitive to climate change; (2) depending on species loss rates, magnitude of temperature changes, and number samples, effects may be detected in 15 to 100 years; and (3) climate change effects may decrease the ability of states to discriminate between reference and impaired sites. The report concludes with recommendations for PO 00000 Frm 00043 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 more in-depth assessments in different U.S. regions and further dissemination and coordination of information across EPA and states.
