Coastal: Vunerability Assessment - Shorebird Habitat: Instructions Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment for Shorebird Habitat. Coastal Version. 7/03/2010 Manomet Center for Conservation Sciences/U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. By Dorie Stolley

Manomet: Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment for Shorebird: The Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment for Shorebird Habitat (CCVASH) is an innovative, Excel-based assessment and decision-making tool that was developed during 2009/2010 by the Manomet Center for Conservation Sciences's Shorebird Recovery Project [4] in partnership with the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS [5]) Northeast Region’s Division of Refuges. This partnership, funded in large part by the generosity of individual Manomet donors concerned about climate change impacts on shorebirds, enabled Refuge Biologist Dorie Stolley to develop and pilot the tool during a one-year assignment to Manomet.
