New tool estimates storm-protection benefits for coastal communities
Original: New cost-analysis tool allows coastal communities to see and estimate benefits of investing in storm-protection measures
Researchers at UC Santa Cruz have developed a cost-analysis tool that helps coastal communities estimate the benefits of investing in storm-protection measures. The tool is designed to make the value of protective infrastructure more visible, giving local officials a clearer basis for deciding where and how to invest against storm damage.
Why now: Interest in practical climate-adaptation tools is growing as coastal storm risks increase.
