The Atlantic Climate Adaptation Solutions Association (ACASA) panel provides guidance to provincial and local governments regarding adaptation strategies to address climate impacts in communities and ecosystems. The panel offers peer-review of papers, reports and activities, and will produce an annual communiqu\u00e9 to governments and the general public on the state of climate change adaptation science and policy.<\/p>\n

Dr. Adam Fenech, who serves on the Gulf of Maine Council Climate Network subcommittee<\/a>, chairs the Expert Panel and directs UPEI\u2019s Climate Research Lab. \u201cThe Atlantic Region is already witnessing climate changes affecting its fisheries, agriculture, tourism and natural environment. Our panel can help government and citizens determine how best to grasp opportunities and respond to the challenges posed by climate change.\u201d<\/p>\n
