Development of the Coastal Storm Modeling System (CoSMoS) for predicting the impact of storms on high-energy, active-margin coasts
Abstract The Coastal Storm Modeling System (CoSMoS) applies a predominantly
deterministic framework to make detailed predictions (meter scale) of storm-induced coastal …

Unintended consequences of using maps to communicate sea-level rise
Sea-level rise caused by climate change poses enormous social and economic costs, yet
governments and coastal residents are still not taking the mitigation and adaptation steps …

Sea level rise impacts on wastewater treatment systems along the US coasts
As sea levels rise, coastal communities will experience more frequent and persistent
nuisance flooding, and some low‐lying areas may be permanently inundated. Critical …

Predicting coastal cliff erosion using a Bayesian probabilistic model
Regional coastal cliff retreat is difficult to model due to the episodic nature of failures and the
along-shore variability of retreat events. There is a growing demand, however, for predictive …

Creating adaptive social-ecological fit: The role of regional actors in the governance of Sea-level rise adaptation in San Francisco bay
Sea level rise is one of the most pressing climate adaptation issues around the world. Often,
coastal communities are interdependent in their exposure to sea level rise–if one builds a …

Personalized risk messaging can reduce climate concerns
One potential barrier to climate policy action is that individuals view climate change as a
problem for people in other parts of the world or for future generations. As some scholars …
