This $147,500 federal Cooperative Agreement award from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Research and Data Collection program (CFDA 15.808) supports a project to enhance landslide forecasting capabilities in Southeast Alaska. The Sitka Sound Science Center will deploy a network of 10 rain gauges to collect localized precipitation data and integrate it into existing debris flow forecasting models, with the goal of improving the accuracy of landslide risk predictions in the region. The project will deliver a comprehensive rainfall dataset, an evaluation report on the impact of the new data on forecasting, and a detailed installation and maintenance manual to enable replication of the low-cost precipitation monitoring system by other communities in Southeast Alaska. The outcomes are expected to enhance public safety by providing more accurate landslide warnings to residents in this high-risk area.
