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 $499,988 project grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports research to understand population mobility patterns and experiences due to low-attention flooding events. The 3-year study, starting September 1, 2024, aims to fill the knowledge gap around how repeated, low-attention flood disasters that receive limited media coverage contribute to people's decisions to evacuate, return, or permanently relocate. The research team will...
This $550,254 project grant award from the National Science Foundation's Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports research by the University of Arizona to address the flood justice and equity impacts of urban adaptation and expansion using satellite observations. The research aims to: Generate observed flood data to measure how flood protection infrastructure like levees and drainage systems impact flooding patterns and who is affected, particularly underserved communities. Build capacity...
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 $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 $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 $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 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...
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 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...
