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 $400,000 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program. The grant supports a 3-year research project that examines the impacts of natural disasters on community resilience and spatial disparities. The project has three key components: 1) analyzing disruptions to resident mobility patterns using mobile phone data, 2) investigating spatial variation in requests for government assistance, and 3)...
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 three-year National Science Foundation project grant of $399,622 supports research into the effects of chronic flooding on coastal migration in North Carolina. Led by researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the project will deploy novel sensor networks to detect floods of all sizes at high spatial resolution in identified flood-prone coastal areas. Household surveys and administrative records will provide data on migration intentions, behaviors, and socioeconomic...
This Project Grant award of $300,000 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports research to develop fast flood modeling technologies that can improve the design and resilience of infrastructure systems. The objective is to create flood simulation capabilities that significantly speed up assessments of flood risks and infrastructure responses, while maintaining accuracy. This high-risk, interdisciplinary research project at the University of Miami's...
This Project Grant award of $998,696.00 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) will fund a project at Northeastern University to evaluate how communities have responded to recent floods and develop new tools to help build resilience to flooding hazards. The project aims to enhance the resilience of floodplain communities by increasing understanding of the causes and projections of riverine flooding at the local level. The researchers will collaborate with...
This $114,675 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports a 3-year collaborative research study on the temporal dynamics of household flood adjustment behaviors. The research team at the University of North Texas will employ a longitudinal survey design to understand the mechanisms that lead individuals to adopt flood hazard adjustment behaviors over time. The study will introduce an experimental intervention...
This Project Grant, awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, aims to develop a novel computer modeling approach to comprehensively understand and manage flood risk. The $299,271 award, effective September 1, 2024, brings together a team of U.S. and Japanese researchers to create a multi-scale, multi-agent flood risk model that considers both natural and human factors, including the differential impacts on...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) Project Grant award of $300,000 will support research to develop and pilot a novel satellite-based method for assessing the performance of flood mitigation infrastructure across the United States. The research, conducted by the University of Wisconsin-Madison, aims to build a temporal-spatial database of flood events using machine learning analysis of satellite observations from 2001 to 2025. This database will be...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.041 - Engineering) provides $499,653.00 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 inform local and regional policymakers and planners responsible for economic planning and land use decisions by revealing the spatial and temporal patterns of flooding impact on municipal tax bases and...
