Breaking down barriers and fostering better decision-making Kyle Gray, University of Rhode Island, (November, 2020)
We developed 25‐ and 100‐year return level design snow water equivalent and snowmelt maps using long‐term observation‐based gridded SWE .Results provide guidance in identifying areas and infrastructure vulnerable to snowmelt‐driven floods. Eunsang Cho, Hydrological Sciences Laboratory ,NASA Goddard Space Flight Center &Earth System Science Interdisciplinary Center (October, 2020)
ICNet Webinars
In this presentation we will describe known major flood-generating mechanisms in the Northeast US. We will also summarize our research, and research by others, on how flood magnitudes and frequencies have changed as a consequence of historical hydroclimatic changes. Potential implications of past trends and future changes for designing floodplain infrastructure will also be reviewed. Glenn Hodgkins, USGS New England Water Science Center, and Mathias Collins, NOAA Fisheries (March 2016)
Dynamical downscaling uses physically-based numerical models to achieve a finer spatial resolution. The webinar survey sthe physical and mathematical basis for dynamical downscaling along with the advantages and disadvantages of dynamical downscaling. Ray Arritt, Iowa State University (March 2015)
This webinar is strongly recommended for any engineer or planner who will be working climate models or climate model data. Katharine Hayhoe, Texas Tech University ( December 2014)
Coastal protection and flood management alternatives include, but are not limited to, structural alternatives, adaptable and modular engineering concepts, flood proofing, bioengineered technology, managed retreat/relocation, elevating, flow control structures, and evacuation plans. These concepts provide alternatives and planning approaches to mitigate, minimize, or adapt to effects of sea level rise and storm events. Kirk Bosma, Woods Hole Group (May 2014)
Assessing the potential vulnerability of the coastal zone to SLR requires integrating a variety of physical, biological, and social factors. A variety of approaches to SLR planning can be used, such as probabilistic assessments, alternative scenarios, and analogs to past conditions. Rob Thieler, USGS, Woods Hole, MA (February 2014)
High-resolution Climate Projections: Where do they come from and what can we do with them? This webinar is strongly recommended for any engineer or planner who will be working climate models or climate model data. Katharine Hayhoe, Texas Tech University (September 2013)
Assessing the potential vulnerability of the coastal zone to SLR requires integrating a variety of physical, biological, and social factors. A variety of approaches to SLR planning can be used, such as probabilistic assessments, alternative scenarios, and analogs to past conditions. Rob Thieler, USGS, Woods Hole, MA (February 2014)
An overview of the projected impacts of climate change in the Northeast. Cameron Wake, University of New Hampshire (October 2013)
