New England Regional Climate Change Impacts
Workshop Summary Report
Â
This
document will become the basis for continued work to produce a New England Regional Assessment (NERA) on climate variability and change. The NERA will
provide New England stakeholders valuable information regarding potential impacts from
climate change or variability and suggest possible mitigation strategies. The NERA will
also feed into the National Assessment process.
