USDA Northern Forests Climate Hub develops and delivers science-based, region-specific information and technologies, to help natural resource managers and woodland owners integrate climate change information into planning, decision making, and management activities in order to sustain the diverse benefits from forests in a changing climate. The Northern Forests Climate Hub provides additional capacity to two primary USDA Regional Climate Hubs—the Northeast and Midwest Hubs—and works within their broader scope and organization.

The Northern Forests Climate Hub provides:

  • Technical support for land managers to respond to drought, heat stress, floods, pests, shifts in habitat suitability, sea level rise and coastal erosion of forests, and any other forest and ecosystem challenges in the context of climate change.

  • Regional assessments on ecosystem vulnerability and adaptation planning.

  • Outreach and education for land managers to understand climate change, and education on adaptation in order to minimize risks.
