  1. Species on the Move What do climate models predict about tree and bird ranges? OHSU-TS-068-2013

  2. Trees (and Birds, and Plants) on the Move • General Circulation Models (GCMs) are used to predict future climate • They can also predict future habitat ranges as ecosystems shift and adapt to new conditions • Most people see these types of maps in a gardening context

  3. The US Forest Service Climate Change Atlas For Trees • http://www.nrs.fs.fed.us/atlas/tree/tree_atlas.html For Birds • http://www.nrs.fs.fed.us/atlas/bird/index.html
