4 Why cold-water fishes? Most species at risk are in freshwaters Ectotherms Temperature is destiny Losses from climate change are underway Williams et al Bull trout, EF Bitterroot River Wenger et al Eby et al. 2014
5 A future for coldwater fish? Most projections are for % declines Eaton & Schaller 1996 Reusch et al Rahel et al Mohseni et al Flebbe et al Rieman et al Kennedy et al Williams et al Wenger et al Almodovar et al etc. Substantial uncertainty Depends on emissions Depends on GCMs Depends on habitat models Depends on species 1980s baseline ( ) Hamlet al s ( ) 2080s ( ) 2040s = moderate change 2080s = extreme change
6 Precise information needed to empower local decision makers Previous High-resolution models landscape are too coarse models Not Good Enough for Zombie Detection I m going to invest here instead of here Rieman et al. 2007
7 Assessing the vulnerability of native trout to climate change NRAP project Occupancy models Accurate, necessary, sufficient Consider invasive species Founded on field data Predictions and projections Address climate change Straightforward to understand and apply Versatile and specific in space & time Identify climate refugia
