Pacific Climate Impacts Consortium (PCIC)

The Pacific Climate Impacts Consortium (PCIC) is dedicated to stimulating collaboration and building capacity to produce practical climate information for education, policy, and decision-making in the Pacific Northwest. The Consortium informs adaptation in both operational activities and long term planning in order to reduce vulnerability to climate variability, climate change, and extreme weather events.

Pacific

• our focus is on the Pacific Northwest of North America: a region with similar climatic influence, resource dependence, and topography

Climate

• we provide practical information about the numerous components and timescales of the climate system: past, present, and future

Impacts

• our focus is on improving the information available about what the impacts of climate variability, change, and extreme weather events will be: in order to inform adaptation and reduce vulnerability

Consortium

• we bridge the gap from research to applications by means of a multiorganizational Consortium supported by a core staff of multidisciplinary climate experts
