Maps of the USGS Climate Adaptation Science Centers (May 2024)

Metadata Updated: October 29, 2025

The Climate Adaptation Science Centers (CASCs) partner with natural and cultural resource managers, tribes and indigenous communities, and university researchers to provide science that helps fish, wildlife, ecosystems, and the communities they support adapt to climate change. The CASCs provide managers and stakeholders with information and decision-making tools to respond to the effects of climate change. While each CASC works to address specific research priorities within their respective region, CASCs also collaborate across boundaries to address issues within shared ecosystems, watersheds, and landscapes. These shapefiles represent the 9 CASC regions and the national CASC that comprise the CASC network, highlighting the consortium institutions that make up each region.The shapefiles were produced in ArcGIS Pro but any geospatial software can be used to view the shapefiles (ArcGIS, QGIS, etc).
