Featured Research Project

Integrated Geospatial, Cultural, and Social Assessment of Coastal Resilience to Climate Change

Social scientists will collaborate with a wetlands ecologist to improve assessments of communities’ vulnerabilities to climate change and to help communities develop strategies to adapt. Better integration of geospatial and modeling data with social science knowledge has the potential to reveal critical decision points leading to more resilient communities, economies, and ecosystems.
