The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a 5-year, $550,254 Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) grant to the University of Arizona under the Engineering (CFDA 47.041) program. The grant supports research to examine the flood justice and equity impacts of urban expansion and flood protection infrastructure. The project aims to generate observed flood data from satellite observations to assess if and where flood protection measures, such as levees and drainage systems,...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Award provides $519,052 to the University of Texas at Austin to conduct research on using real-time control of hydraulic infrastructure like dams to reduce nutrient pollution in river networks. The project aims to develop computational models, estimation methods, and control strategies to mitigate the impacts of nutrient pollution and algal blooms in watersheds, effectively treating them like water treatment plants....
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) Engineering (47.041) Project Grant of $396,200 was awarded to The University of Texas at Arlington on November 1, 2021 to support research through October 31, 2023. The grant aims to leverage crowdsourced data to assess spatiotemporal patterns of resilience in diverse Gulf Coast communities impacted by natural hazards. Products and services will include analysis of how crowdsourced data can measure community resilience following disasters. A sub-award of...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program grant of $540,163 awarded to the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (Tees) supports research to develop quantitative tools and methods for incorporating resilience into the early stages of engineering system design.

This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award, under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), provides $490,573 to Tufts University to support a transdisciplinary research project exploring climate-informed strategies for equitable adaptation of flood protection infrastructure, such as aging levees, under current and future compound hazards. The key objectives are to: (1) identify vulnerabilities and disparities within leveed communities, particularly historically underserved and...
This $299,271 NSF Project Grant awarded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports the development of a novel, multi-scale, multi-agent computer modeling system to comprehensively study and manage flood risk. The project, a collaboration between Lehigh University and researchers in the U.S. and Japan, aims to create an inclusive, human-centered flood risk modeling framework that considers natural conditions, human perceptions, and government policies -...
This $542,947 five-year Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) supports research by Colorado State University to develop new methodologies for assessing evolving hurricane risks to urban building exteriors due to climate change and urbanization. The research aims to create a user-friendly, cloud-based application called UrbanWinds that allows engineers to quickly evaluate wind loads and building risk...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Civil, Mechanical, and Manufacturing Innovation awarded a $274,573 Project Grant to the University of Alabama Office for Sponsored Programs Division under CFDA Program #47.041 Engineering. The award, which runs from August 15, 2023 to July 31, 2028, will fund research to develop a resilience assessment framework that tracks the accumulated costs of nuisance floods as an indicator of sea-level rise. The project aims to use this information to...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $499,653 Project Grant to Rowan University under the NSF Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) 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 will examine the spatial and temporal patterns of flooding impact on municipal tax bases and infrastructure, and explore how these financial challenges influence local adaptation efforts. The findings...
