The Nature Conservancy (TNC). 2007. Conservation Action Planning. Excerpt from the web page: These practices are meant to help conservation projects develop strategies, take action, and measure their success and then to adapt and learn over time. The CAP process covers the components of the Conservancy's Conservation Approach after global and ecoregional priorities have been set. It is the most recent incarnation and synthesis of what is a long legacy of project -level planning practices in the Conservancy, including Site Conservation Plan- ning, Conservation Area Planning, and the 5 -S Framework. The Conservation Action Planning methodology builds upon these previous practices using basic planning and adaptive management principles. http: / /conser- veonline.org /workspaces /cbdgatewa.y/cap /resources /index html The Nature Conservancy (TNC). 2009. Conservation Action Planning Guidelines for Developing Strate- gies in the Face of Climate Change. Excerpt from the web page: The guidance is intended to help conservation practitioners more systematically and explicitly take into consideration the potential impacts of climate change on their conservation strategies and actions. The methods were originally written for and tested by projects that already had a basic Conservation Action Plan but that did not adequately consider the potential impacts of climate change in their original plan. Thus, the guidance is best applied to existing projects that have some understanding of the conservation challenges and opportunities they face but that have not yet systematically considered climate change — these guidelines will help practitioners consider the potential effects of climate change and adjust their strategies and actions accordingly. http: / /conserveonline. org /workspaces /climateadapration/ documents / climate - clinic /documents /climate- change-proj ect- level - guidance Theoharides, K.A., G. Barnhart, and P. Glick. 2009. Climate change adaptation across the landscape: a survey of federal and state agencies, conservation organization and academic institutions in the United States. Survey Synthesis, The Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies, Defenders of Wildlife, The Nature Conservancy, and The National Wildlife Federation. Excerpt from the Executive Summary: To develop a clear definition and statement of need for adaptation we conducted 68 interviews of federal and state agency staff, non - governmental organization conservationists, and academic scientists who are thinking about or working on climate change adaptation. We asked these experts to define climate change adaptation, to discuss ongoing adaptation planning efforts, to provide us with examples of adaptation techniques and practices, and to list costs associated with these techniques. We also asked participants to discuss the challenges to planning for and imple- menting adaptation, the metrics associated with adaptation project monitoring, partnership opportunities, and communication strategies. http : / /wwwdefendersofwildlife.orV,/resources /publications /programs and polio gw /climate change adaptation across the landscape.pdf Wildlife Management Institute and the Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership. 2009. Beyond Seasons' End: A Path Forward for Fish and Wildlife in the Era of Climate Change. Bipartisan Policy Center, Washington, D.C. Beyond Seasons' End presents ideas of fish and wildlife professionals about actions that the human community can take to assist the wild community adapting to climate change. Impacts, recommenda- tions and case studies are provided for coldwater fish, warmwater fish, big game, upland birds, and saltwater. http: / /www.seasonsend.orV,/12dfs /Beyond Seasons End.pdf Annotated Bibliography 163
