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 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 $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 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 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will develop tools and solution alternatives for coastal communities impacted by compounding flood hazards from multiple simultaneous sources. The $999,732 project, which runs from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2030, will partner with local organizations in San Juan, Puerto Rico to use advanced computer models and affordable flood sensors to improve flood modeling and produce guidelines...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a Project Grant totaling $199,667 to the New York Institute of Technology (NYIT) under the NSF's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041). The purpose of this grant is to rapidly collect and curate time-sensitive field data, such as high-water marks and precipitation records, from neighborhoods in New York City that were severely flooded by Tropical Storm Ophelia. This data will be used to help stakeholders and communities assess vulnerabilities and develop...
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 Project Grant award of $500,000 from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) aims to address the issue of flood injustice in the United States. The project, titled "CHIRRP RCN: CATALYZING FLOOD JUSTICE IN THE USA," brings together researchers, policymakers, and community organizations to examine the social, economic, and environmental factors contributing to unequal flood risks and recovery outcomes. The key activities of this Research Coordination...
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 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...
