Multiple federal agencies engage scientists from numerous disciplines to generate projections of sea-level rise for U.S. coastlines, but how do coastal communities use this information to prepare for the future? This meeting will discuss examples of planning for coastal resilience at both a municipal and individual level, with introductions to these topics from two speakers working directly on these issues (Alexander Robel and Nadia Seeteram).
