The State of Nevada climate change page (edited for formatting): “Once thought of as a future problem, there is a growing body of evidence linking climate change with changes in fish and wildlife and their habitats. Nevada is experiencing the effects of climate change in a number of ways; some of which are more difficult to measure than others. Climate change predictions for Nevada include: Increased temperatures, Warmer winter storms, Earlier spring snowmelt, Lower spring-summer streamflows, Increased storm severity, Increase in severity and frequency of wildfires, Increase in invasive species”
