Requires the Secretary of the Interior to establish the National Climate Change Wildlife Science Center within USGS to: (1) assess
current physical and biological
knowledge and prioritize
scientific gaps in such
knowledge to forecast the ecological impacts of climate change on fish and wildlife at the ecosystem, habitat, community, population, and species levels; (2) develop and improve tools to identify, evaluate, and link
scientific approaches and models for forecasting impacts of climate change; (3) develop and evaluate tools to adaptively manage and monitor climate change impacts; and (4) develop capacities for sharing such data.
