UC Berkeley builds digital twin of Pajaro Valley to model flood risks

Original: Local News Matters Bay Area: UC Berkeley researchers create digital twin of Pajaro Valley to test future flood risks. “T

UC Berkeley researchers have created a digital twin of Pajaro Valley, the farming region along the Lower Pajaro River that divides Monterey and Santa Cruz counties, to simulate future flood risks. The communities there have suffered repeated multi-million dollar floods, and the model is intended to help test how different scenarios could affect the area.

Why now: Recent flooding in the region has made new tools for predicting and preparing for flood risks timely and relevant.
