Service Description:

This map shows the estimated terrestrial resilience score of each cell based on its landscape diversity and local connectedness scores, with the coastal sea level rise analysis area and pioneer lava area grayed out.  Areas in green are above-average and estimated to be more resilient to climate change. Areas in brown are below-average and estimated to be more vulnerable to climate change.

For terrestrial resilience, the estimate of resilience for each 30 meter cells was equal to: 

Estimated Resilience = (Landscape diversity (z-score) + Local connectedness (z-score) /2

The results highlight areas in every geophysical setting that have higher microclimate topographic options and higher local connectedness where we expect these enabling conditions will help species persist and adapt to changes in future climate. The integrated score is useful for mapping the areas where those factors combine to create high resilience, but we also encourage users to look closely at the individual factors as they reveal interesting and different information about the landscape. 

For coastal areas each coastal site (tidal marsh complex, unconsolidated shore complex, or anchialine pool) received a resilience score based on the likelihood that its coastal habitats can and will migrate to adjacent lowlands, referred to as “migration space.” Each site is scored relative to all other sites of the same type on the same island.
