Natural and cultural resource managers today are faced with many challenges, including an uncertain but changing climate. This is the first of two workshops that will focus on O'ahu as part of the Hawaiian Islands Climate Synthesis Project. It will use expert input to assess the vulnerability of key natural and cultural resources to climate change, and develop a common understanding of the range of possible future climate conditions and what those changes could mean for resources.

1. Provide participants with baseline knowledge and understanding of climate trends (current, historic, projected future) for O'ahu.
2. Assess vulnerabilities of habitats and ecosystem services to climate change including sensitivity, exposure, and adaptive capacity.
3. Review and select associated climate drivers important for habitats and ecosystem services, and develop alternative future scenarios.
4. Discuss how alternative future scenarios could impact habitats and services.
