Indigenous resurgence in the Blue Economy: Relational values to guide kelp mariculture

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Decisions about how to use ocean spaces are increasingly attuned to issues of social equity, environmental sustainability and climate resilience, yet often bypass local governance, knowledge, values and thus objectives. To inform future decisions about kelp harvest and mariculture activities on the west coast of Canada, we co‐designed research

The global long-term effects of storm surge flooding on human settlements in coastal areas

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters
People in low-lying coastal areas live under the great threat of damage due to coastal flooding from tropical cyclones. Understanding how coastal population settlements react to such events is of high importance for society to consider future adaptation ...

The Floodwater Depth Estimation Tool (FwDET v2.0) for improved remote sensing analysis of coastal flooding

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2019
. Remote sensing analysis is routinely used to map flooding extent either retrospectively or in near-real time. For flood emergency response, remote-sensing-based flood mapping is highly valuable as it can offer continued observational information about ...

Survey‐based study of public perceptions and preferences for mitigating flood risk via nature‐based solutions in the United States

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Nature‐based solutions (NbS), such as reconnecting floodplains and restoring riparian wetlands, can reduce flood risk as well as provide benefits like carbon storage, habitat support, and recreation. However, wetlands and floodplains are increasingly replaced with urban development and flooding is primarily addressed with grey infrastructure ...

Responding to rising waters and temperatures: greenhouse gas flux from a high-latitude coastal wetland

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters
Climate change is exposing coastal landscapes to more flooding, in addition to rapidly rising temperatures. These changes are critical in the Arctic where the effects of sea level rise are exacerbated by the loss of sea ice protecting coasts, subsidence ...

Weathering the storms of climate change: Preparing persons with disabilities and the physiatrists who provide their care for extreme hurricanes

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate‐driven disasters have disproportionate and often devastating consequences on individuals with disabilities. Warming ocean and air temperatures are fueling more extreme tropical cyclones, further endangering those living in at‐risk regions.
