Climate change is amplifying the freshwater biodiversity crisis. In response, The Nature Conservancy's Center for Resilient Conservation Science mapped resilience of freshwater networks for biodiversity to help direct our conservation efforts to where we can be effective for the long term. In this session, you will learn how to apply this map to your own work. We will discuss conserving the freshwater stage, how we mapped resilience, and how to use the Resilient River Explorer tool.
