University of Regina researchers continue to lead the way in the effort to adapt to climate change. Dr. David Sauchyn, a senior research scientist at the Prairie Adaptation Research Collaborative (PARC), is a co-director of the Vulnerability and Adaptation to Climate Extremes in the Americas or VACEA project. The $2.5 million research project just completed the third year of a five-year study. VACEA is a multi-disciplinary comparative study of adaptation to climate change on the Canadian plains, and in Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Colombia.
