In December project faculty Mikuki Hino (City and Regional Planning), Antonia Sebastian (Geology), doctoral candidate Nathan Dollar (sociology), and doctoral candidate Lauren Grimley (Marine Sciences) attended the annual meeting of the American Geophysical Union. Our team presented our convergence framework and preliminary project results at an in person session, which provided an opportunity to lay out the ways in which our four key project hubs (social sciences, natural sciences, engineering, planning and policy) intersect to shape project research.
“The Dynamics of Extreme Events, People, and Places: A Convergent Approach to Understanding Flooding Exposure and Impacts.”
