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...
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...
The National Science Foundation awarded a $220,002 project grant under the Engineering federal grant program (CFDA 47.041) to the University of Miami Rosenstiel Marine for collaborative research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: FLOODPLAIN MANAGEMENT IN THE UNITED STATES: WHERE, WHY, AND HOW POLICIES HAVE SHAPED FLOOD EXPOSURE OUTCOMES." The three-year project beginning September 2021 will examine how and why floodplain management policies have shaped flood risk outcomes in different...
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 $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 $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...
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...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (CFDA 47.041 - Engineering) provides $499,653.00 to Rowan University 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 aims to inform local and regional policymakers and planners responsible for economic planning and land use decisions by revealing the spatial and temporal patterns of flooding impact on municipal tax bases and...
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 $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...
