Projects
CCRFR works across many disciplines and subject matter to build flood resilience. In addition to conducting outreach and engagement throughout Virginia, we have highlighted many tools and ongoing or completed projects below.
Hampton Roads has experienced one of the highest rates of relative sea level rise on the Atlantic coast over the past century.
Adapt Virginia is an information gateway on climate change adaptation for individuals, local programs, and agencies.
Water level predictions are critical for building resiliency to flooding both in terms of short-term storm-induced flooding and longer-term sea level rise.
CCRFR communicates their work across sectors including governments, businesses, non-governmental organizations, and community members using various communication strategies.
CCRFR works with scientists, local and state political figures, community leaders, the military, and others to integrate the latest science with legal and policy analysis to solve coastal resource management issues.
CCRFR studies the economic costs of flooding and sea level rise and the benefits of interventions including engineered infrastructure, natural and nature-based solutions, and resilient design standards.
