OPPORTUNITIES FOR FUTURE ANALYSES
• Climate Change Impacts on Additional Ecosystem Services
• Climate Change Impacts on Habitats and Resiliency
• Socio-Economic Considerations (Adaptive Capacity)
• Development of near-term climate scenarios (e.g. 2030 vs. 2100)
• Expansion of climate scenario (storm intensity & frequency)
