These resources generally occur within four ecosystem types: coasts and oceans, forests, fresh waters, and grasslands and shrublands. GAO obtained experts' views on (1) the effects of climate change on federal resources and (2) the challenges managers face in addressing climate change effects on these resources. GAO held a workshop with the National Academies in which 54 scientists, economists, and federal resource managers participated, and conducted 4 case studies. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-863/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-863.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-863/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-863.pdf GAO-07-863 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-863 Other Written Product GAO-07-863; Climate Change: Agencies Should Develop Guidance for Addressing the Effects on Federal Land and Water Resources; Environmental assessment Environmental monitoring Environmental policies Environmental protection Forest management Land management Marine resources conservation National forests National parks Natural resources Plants (organisms) Public lands Strategic planning Water resources conservation Wildlife conservation Climate change Environmental effects
