Due to climate change, the shape of future extreme precipitation likeliness is uncertain. Global climate models are not intended to capture local extremes, and different climate models provide different results. This is problematic for public works departments, transportation agencies, and other groups responsible for water resources infrastructure, because extreme event estimates drive engineering design. However, […]
Changes in intensity and frequency of temperature and precipitation provide more extreme parameters that our stressed, and often aging, infrastructure will need to overcome. These changes can mean a dramatic difference in real-time conditions within the watershed that test and potentially exceed the limits of infrastructures’ original design capacity. It is important to understand and […]
Virginia is one of the most vulnerable states when it comes to climate change. Higher sea levels and heavier rainfall events are already impacting coastal communities and the Hampton Roads region is experiencing the highest rate of sea level rise on the east coast. The coastal community has been actively developing mitigation strategies and working […]
