NCEAS Working Groups
ORCAS: Integrating thermal physiology and species interactions to forecast community response to climate changer
Project Description
ORCAS seeks to investigate organismal responses to climate change using a collaborative data science approach. This working group will focus on organismal physiology, evolutionary processes (e.g., local or rapid adaptation), and ecological processes (e.g., species interactions, range shifts). The ORCAS program strives to promote collaborative and team based research using a mentee-mentor model. We will pair early career researchers with more later career stage mentors to conduct synthetic research.
