Abstract
This is the executive summary for the report Climate Change Vulnerability and Adaptation in Southwest Oregon, by Halofsky et al. (2022, PNW-GTR-995). The vulnerability and adaptation assessment was conducted by the Southwest Oregon Adaptation Partnership, a science-management partnership. The partnership assessed the vulnerability of natural resources to climate change and developed adaptation options that minimize its negative impacts and facilitate ecosystem transition to a warmer climate.
