Abstract/Description or Keywords A preliminary analysis of climate change in the Cariboo-Chilcotin is recommending future work to assess potential vulnerabilities and opportunities from climate change for area ecosystems and resource values. The report was a collaboration between the provincial government’s Integrated Land Management Bureau and the Pacific Climate Impacts Consortium from the University of Victoria. It indicates that such assessments could help researchers and planners develop specific adaptation responses to minimize disruption to important ecological, economic, and social values in the Cariboo-Chilcotin. This 50-page report provides analysis of past and potential future climate in the Cariboo-Chilcotin region in the Central Interior of British Columbia. It was written to stimulate thought, discussion, and planning about the effects of climate change on the ecosystems and resource values included in the Cariboo-Chilcotin Land Use Plan.
