This $757,974 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports research by The Pennsylvania State University, doing business as Penn State, to develop a systems modeling framework for designing climate-resilient levee infrastructure that supports equitable, resilient, and sustainable floodplain communities. The project aims to address interactions between levee network performance, future climates, natural infrastructure, and behavioral...
This $199,998 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) aims to advance the understanding of the disproportionate impacts of cascading flood events on vulnerable populations, particularly individuals with disabilities. The primary activities include engaging community partners, conducting stakeholder interviews and community listening tours, assessing the feasibility of existing and emerging flood resilience solutions, and mapping the...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) provides $499,653 to Rowan University to investigate how sea-level rise and coastal flooding impact the ability of local communities to plan for and adapt to extreme coastal events. The project aims to improve the understanding of how property devaluation due to flooding affects municipal tax revenues, which in turn constrains governments' capacity to invest in adaptation measures. The project...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $199,998 to Trustees of Dartmouth College to strengthen community resilience to river flood hazards in hilly and mountainous areas. The two-year project aims to: (1) build partnerships with local communities impacted by river floods, (2) co-develop critical research questions on flood erosion hazards and adaptation solutions, (3) develop a database of flood impacts and adaptation...
This five-year, $460,399 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research and education initiatives focused on improving flood hazard assessments. The principal investigator at Northeastern University will establish a long-term floodplain sedimentation observatory and develop hydraulic models to better understand landscape controls on alluvial sedimentation patterns. This work will help constrain flood hazard estimates through...
This $150,000 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) supports research at Texas A&M University examining decision-making around evolving coastal flood risks. The grantee will develop an integrated framework combining risk modeling, economic sorting models, and social behavior models to understand how residential location choices are impacted by changing flood conditions and flood control infrastructure investments. This will quantify changes in...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) project grant, awarded under the CFDA program 47.079 - Office of International Science and Engineering, aims to develop a flood resilience framework for coastal communities in the Caribbean region, particularly in Guyana, Trinidad and Tobago, and St. Lucia. The $648,579 project, starting on June 1, 2024 and running through May 31, 2027, will be led by the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. The key project goals are to (a) create a community learning...
This $550,000 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will support the development of data-driven physics-informed machine learning models to predict flood-induced flow and sediment dynamics. Over a four-year period ending June 2027, the grantee will improve existing high-fidelity numerical modeling tools and apply them to evaluate flood impacts on infrastructure stability in large waterways. They will then use simulation results to inform and...
This $999,732 federal Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050), will develop tools and solution alternatives to mitigate the effects of compounding flood hazards in coastal communities. The project will partner with local organizations in San Juan, Puerto Rico to use advanced computer models and affordable flood sensors to improve flood modeling and develop more resilient flood mitigation solutions for compound flood events. Key deliverables...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $114,675 to the University of North Texas to conduct a 3-year longitudinal study on the temporal dynamics of household flood adjustment behaviors. The research team will employ a survey-based experimental intervention to understand the mechanisms that lead individuals to adopt flood hazard adjustment behaviors over time. The study aims to generate...
