The magnitude of these challenges demands that the conservation community work together to develop integrated adaptation and mitigation strategies that collectively address the impacts of climate change and other landscape-scale stressors. On September 14, 2009, DOI Secretary Ken Salazar signed Secretarial Order 3289 (amended February 22, 2010) entitled, \u201cAddressing the Impacts of Climate Change on America\u2019s Water, Land, and Other Natural and Cultural Resources.\u201d The Order establishes the foundation for two partner-based conservation science entities to address these unprecedented challenges: Climate Science Centers (CSCs and Landscape Conservation Cooperatives (LCCs). CSCs and LCCs are the Department-wide approach for applying scientific tools to increase understanding of climate change and to coordinate an effective response to its impacts on tribes and the land, water, ocean, fish and wildlife, and cultural-heritage resources that DOI manages. Eight CSCs have been established and are managed through the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Climate Change and Wildlife Science Center (NCCWSC); each CSC works in close collaboration with their neighboring CSCs, as well as those across the Nation, to ensure the best and most efficient science is produced.\n\nThe South Central CSC was established in 2012 through a cooperative agreement with the University of Oklahoma, Texas Tech University, Louisiana State University, the Chickasaw Nation, the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University, and NOAA\u2019s Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Lab; hereafter termed the \u201dConsortium\u201d of the South Central CSC. The Consortium has a broad expertise in the physical, biological, natural, and social sciences to address impacts of climate change on land, water, fish and wildlife, ocean, coastal, and cultural resources.\n\nThe South Central CSC will provide scientific information, tools, and techniques that managers and other parties interested in land, water, wildlife, and cultural resources can use to anticipate, monitor, and adapt to climate change, actively engaging LCCs and other partners in translating science into management decisions.\n\nThis document is the first Strategic Science Plan for the South Central CSC (2013-18). Using the January 2011 DOI guidance as a model, this document (1) describes the role and interactions of the South Central CSC among partners and stakeholders including Federal, State, and non-governmental organizations throughout the region; (2) describes a concept of what the center will provide to its partners; (3) defines a context for climate impacts in the south central United States; and (4) establishes the science priorities the center will address through research. Science priorities are currently organized as immediate or future research needs; however, this document is intended to be reevaluated and modified as partner needs change and as scientific work progresses.", "description": "vii, 24 p.", "publisher": {"@type": "Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "author": [{"@type": "Person", "name": "Dalton, Melinda S. msdalton@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Melinda S.", "familyName": "Dalton", "email": "msdalton@usgs.gov", "identifier": {"@type": "PropertyValue", "propertyID": "ORCID", "value": "0000-0002-2929-5573", "url": "https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2929-5573"}, "affiliation": [{"@type": "Organization", "name": "Georgia Water Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/sawsc"}, {"@type": "Organization", "name": "Office of the Associate Director for Water", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/mission-areas/water-resources"}]}, {"@type": "Person", "name": "Shipp, Allison A. aashipp@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Allison A.", "familyName": "Shipp", "email": "aashipp@usgs.gov", "identifier": {"@type": "PropertyValue", "propertyID": "ORCID", "value": "0000-0003-2927-8893", "url": "https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2927-8893"}, "affiliation": [{"@type": "Organization", "name": "Rocky Mountain Regional Office", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/regions/rocky-mountain"}]}, {"@type": "Person", "name": "Winton, Kim T. kwinton@usgs.gov", "givenName": "Kim T.", "familyName": "Winton", "email": "kwinton@usgs.gov"}], "funder": [{"@type": "Organization", "name": "Georgia Water Science Center", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/sawsc"}, {"@type": "Organization", "name": "Rocky Mountain Regional Office", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/regions/rocky-mountain"}]}
