Evening Student Presents Coastal Research in New York
Over the past year, evening student Natalie Mueller has worked with Associate Engineering Professor Tess Doeffinger, Ph.D., to make research on coastal adaptation more accessible to the public. Mueller created an ArcGIS StoryMap that will soon be shared with the city of Folly Beach, giving residents a look at how adaptations to water-related risks have changed.
The project is supported by the S.C. Sea Grant Margaret A. Davidson Resilience Scholar Program. This summer, Mueller and Doeffinger presented their work on translating research findings around coastal adaptation to communities at the Mobility, Adaptation, and Wellbeing in Climate Change Conference at Columbia University in New York. More than 50 people attended their session.
