USU Climate Adaptation Science Program

Dr. Geno Schupp is the CAS Program's Associate Director and an excellent advisor/mentor for CAS trainees. We are so grateful for his participation in the CAS program. Unfortunately for us, he will be retiring this year... Make sure to glean as much knowledge from him as you can before he goes!

When ecosystems are healthy and sustained by physical, chemical, and biological processes, they produce Ecosystem Services. Climate change has affected the health of our ecosystems and made these “services” erratic in their production and availability. To learn more about ecosystem services, and/or help our ecosystem’s health, use the following links:
