- Climate Model Comparison Tool: View information on observational datasets, raw climate model output, and statistically downscaled climate model output.
- The ICNet Research Guide: This guide outlines the steps involved with conducting research related to infrastructure and climate change and provides useful resources. There are sections geared toward someone new to this field, a researcher who wants to conduct a pilot study, and a researcher planning a full study.
- Case Study: The Freeze-Thaw case study is an example research project for the ICNet research community. It documents the impact of climate change on freeze-thaw conditions in low-volume roads and provides comprehensive documentation on the methods used to conduct this research.
- The ICNet Guide to Climate Communications: The ICNet has compiled a list of best practices for communicating climate change and tailored them for researchers who might be presenting to industry professionals and agencies in transportation and infrastructure.

COURSE CURRICULUM
Infusing Climate Change in the Engineering Curriculum
Climate change vulnerability, resiliency, and adaptation is slowly making inroads to the civil engineering curriculum. However, the concepts are traditionally taught as elective coursework at the senior or graduate level or as part of a sustainability style course.
