FishVis and FishTail• Brief description of both• Applications of the results• Demonstration of the online mapper
• Both are:– Decision support tools– Spatially-explicit web-based mappers on the CCVIEWeR– Consider potential stream fish species responses to
climate change – Built with stakeholder needs in mind

FishVis: A Regional Decision Support Tool for Identifying Vulnerabilities of Riverine Habitat and
Fishes to Climate Change
• The broad goal of this project was to
• Identify changes in fish habitat due to projected climate changes based on responses of 13 fish species in streams across the Great Lakes region– Along with changes in stream thermal or flow characteristics important to fishes.
• Create maps of vulnerability (loss) of fish species to climate change index
• Web-based decision support mapper– Display, Navigate, View, Interrogate results of Fish Climate Vulnerability analysis
and ancillary layers

Concepts for assessing climate change ImpactsVulnerability – Models predict a species or stream will experience a loss (i.e., species disappearance)
Opportunity – Models predict a species or stream will experience a gain (i.e., species appearance)
Sensitivity – Models predict a species or stream will experience a change (i.e., either a species appearance or a species disappearance)

FishTail: A Decision Support Mapper for Conserving Stream Fish Habitats for the NE CSC Region
The broad goal of this project was to
1) Characterize current condition of stream fish habitat; develop three spatially-explicit indices reflecting target fish species’ response
a) Human land use
b) Stream fragmentation from dams and road crossings
c) Water quality impairments based on EPA 303d listings in waterbodies
2) Identify stream reaches that may change with climate based on potential changes to distributions of target fish species; develop a spatially-explicit index reflecting likelihood of habitat change with climate
3) Distribute the results through a decision support web based mapper.

Final species count
• Stakeholder’s selected 105 fish species
• Selection criteria included:
• Landscape Conservation Cooperatives priority species
• State-recognized game species (n=40, Daniel et al. 2015)
• All federally-listed endangered, threatened, proposed, and candidates fishes
• EPA intolerant (n=17) and tolerant (n=13) fishes• (Graberkiewicz and Davis 2008)
• Climate-sensitive species (n=11)
We used stakeholder-selected priority fish species forassessing current and future risk of fish habitat degradationFishTail

Catchments in light blue are those catchments which met the previous requirements and are likely well suited to allowing for the long term persistence of the fish community.
