| dc.description.abstract | This project seeks to provide valuable insights to inform local outreach strategies around flood risk, adaptation and mitigation. The multi-phase, multi-year project includes developing a better understanding of (1) the dimensions of flood risk in a estuarine system – critical with climate change related impacts, (2) how perceptions of flood risk are related to adaptation and mitigation strategies, (3) how responses to risks vary from one community to another, and (4) how varying perceptions of risk should inform/influence outreach strategies at the local level. The work to date has been focused on our central goal of developing an understanding of the social landscape of flood risk and risk perception in the target cities -- honing in on Troy, NY as our initial in-depth point of exploration. The 2018 work included four focus groups and several interviews in Troy, strengthening our campus-based flood risk working group, presentations at conferences and workshops, the organization of a state-wide conference at Cornell focused on flood risk and community resiliency, two publications, and the development of a set of preliminary survey questions for implementing in the next phase of the project in 2019. | en_US |
