This $197,445 federal Project Grant award was provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to the Trustees of Dartmouth College. The award supports a project that examines how rural communities in the United States respond to overlapping disasters of flood water inundation and other ecological stressors. The key products and services to be delivered under this grant include: Conducting behavioral observations, interviews, and...
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 $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 Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) provides $200,000 to New York University (NYU) to develop collaborative partnerships and co-identify research questions aimed at using flood sensor data to better understand and predict urban flooding, as well as implement community-level actions toward adaptation and mitigation. The key objectives are to: (1) develop and optimize data processing tools to prepare the flood dataset for actionable...
This $500,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) aims to address the urgent issue of flood injustice in the United States. The research coordination network (RCN) project, titled "CHIRRP RCN: Catalyzing Flood Justice in the USA," examines the social, economic, and environmental factors that contribute to unequal flood risks and recovery outcomes, particularly in communities of color and low socioeconomic status. Key activities...
This $500,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research to develop practical tools and strategies to help rural and indigenous communities in the Great Lakes region anticipate, prepare for, and respond to natural hazards like flooding, landslides, and wildfires. The project combines natural hazard research with local knowledge to create risk assessment tools, data visualization platforms, and training materials to promote...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $299,271 to Lehigh University to develop a novel computer modeling approach that helps understand and manage flood risk. The project, titled "An Inclusive Human-Centered Risk Management Modeling Framework for Flood Resilience," is a joint effort between US and Japanese researchers. Key objectives include establishing a comprehensive US-Japan...
This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) provides $174,000 to fund research from June 1, 2022 to May 31, 2024. The funding supports a study investigating the impact of flooding intensity on levee development and dynamics. The Geosciences program aims to advance fundamental knowledge and understanding of Earth's integrated systems through basic research in atmospheric, Earth, and ocean sciences. This award will further those goals by exploring...
This $673,418 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will fund research at North Carolina State University to improve understanding of monthly flood dynamics over the southeastern and south-central United States. Specifically, the university will quantify shifts in flood climatology, identify moisture delivery pathways for floods, and attribute sources of modulation for floods' spatiotemporal variability. Researchers will examine historical...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities awarded a $598,187 Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to the Gulf of Maine Research Institute (GMRI) to develop social and technology infrastructure that expands critical coastal flooding data collection and leverages it to enhance resilience in rural Maine coastal communities. The key products and services to be delivered under this one-year project include: Installation of low-cost tide gauges to...
