Forecasting Future Conditions in British Columbia's Parks and Protected Areas

Below we forecast cumulative greenness (biodiversity indicator) shifts due to climate change in parks and protected areas to the year 2065 in British Columbia. Parks are classified as large medium and small to ensure even representation. Top 10 parks for each park size classification are highlighted and ranked on the map and the table below. Results show that protected areas along the Coast Mountains, upper elevation Kootenays, Vancouver Island, and Mountain Cordillera will experience the greatest increase to greenness in the future.
