Final Comprehensive Conservation Plan - U.S. Fish and Wildlife ...

Hakalau Forest National Wildlife Refuge
Comprehensive Conservation Plan
The Service is supporting the development of regional Landscape Conservation Cooperatives that
will integrate local climate models with models of climate change responses by species, habitats, and
ecosystems. Cooperatives will collectively plan and design appropriate conservation actions at a
landscape scale, monitor responses to climate change, and assess the effectiveness of management
strategies. The regional version of these Landscape Conservation Cooperatives is the Pacific Islands
Climate Change Cooperative (PICCC), headquartered in Honolulu, Hawai‘i, but working across the
Pacific. By working with PICCC, the Refuge will identify additional mitigation measures for climate
change.
