U.S. Climate Resilience Toolkit Highlights TACCIMO's Role in New Forest Management Plan
Since the Francis Marion National Forest’s land and resource management plan was last revised in 1996, new disturbances, including climate change impacts, have emerged as issues of concern. The Template for Assessing Climate Change Impacts and Management Options (TACCIMO) has been a useful tool for the forest’s planning team who compiled a broad assessment of forest trends and conditions as part of a new management plan currently in development. An article featured on the White House's U.S. Climate Resilience Toolkit website summarizes their process. TACCIMO as well as the ForWarn monitoring system are among the Toolkit's featured tools selected to help users manage climate risks and opportunities.
