This Project Grant award, valued at $113,650.00, was provided by the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) to Appalachian State University. The purpose of the award is to establish a Research Coordination Network (RCN) that will advance scientific knowledge and public welfare through an interdisciplinary collaboration focused on enhancing flood resilience and reducing health disparities in rural communities like those in Appalachia. The RCN will operate through five...
This Project Grant award of $200,000 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) is funding a rapid research project at Montclair State University to evaluate the resilience of small community water systems (CWS) to Hurricanes Helene and Milton in southwest Florida. The project aims to advance understanding of hurricane resilience behaviors of these small CWS, which typically lack the capacity to adapt to natural hazards due to limited resources. The research...
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 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 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...
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill received a $148,962 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Civil, Mechanical, and Manufacturing Innovation to support research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT IN THE UNITED STATES: WHERE, WHY, AND HOW POLICIES HAVE SHAPED FLOOD EXPOSURE OUTCOMES." The three-year grant is funded under the NSF Directorate for Engineering's CFDA #47.041 Engineering program, which aims to foster innovation...
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 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 National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) Project Grant award of $400,000 to Clemson University will develop a next-generation flood computing system called "FLOODENGINE" to improve flood forecasting and analytics. The project will leverage smart cyber-physical systems (SCPS) capabilities to optimize data gathering and processing, develop a physics-based deep learning model, and promote knowledge transfer through innovative networks. The goal is to...

This Project Grant award of $100,000 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program aims to collect hyper-local, individual experience data on the response and recovery efforts to Hurricane Helene in western North Carolina. The project, titled "RAPID: INCREASING COMMUNITY RESILIENCE TO INLAND FLOODING: LESSONS LEARNED FROM RESPONSE AND RECOVERY EFFORTS IN WEST VIRGINIA AND NORTH CAROLINA," will synthesize lessons learned to better understand how communities at high risk of inland flooding can increase resilience and prepare for future disasters. The research team, led by the Research Foundation for the State University of New York (SUNY ESF), will utilize participatory action research centered on storytelling methods, surveys, focus groups, and GIS to meet three key objectives: 1) capture lessons learned about the response to Hurricane Helene and early recovery efforts, 2) promote the transfer of tools developed through previous research in West Virginia to North Carolina communities to assist with recovery, and 3) collect data to develop long-term research on the collective insights from West Virginia and North Carolina for improving response and recovery efforts in places at risk for inland flooding. The project aims to provide significant insights for the field of critical disaster studies and for conducting interdisciplinary community-engaged science.
