The University of Washington invites you to apply to participate in a 5-day collaborative workshop from September 9-13, 2024, to advance research products and methods for improving observations, assessments, and forecasts across appropriate temporal and spatial scales to accomplish three goals:
- Investigate the human behavior and societal adaptive responses to, and impacts of, severe weather and climate-related events, particularly flooding associated with atmospheric rivers, hurricanes, and severe storms, but also including other extreme events such as heat or fire.
- Address the research gaps linking mitigation to adaptation and resilience in relation to severe weather. This will involve exploring co-benefits for human well-being from climate adaptation strategies that will further contribute to resilience to extreme weather events and climate mitigation.
- Explore pathways to better understand the dynamics of decisions and population disparities in responses to and impacts of past extreme climate / weather events.
Funding for the workshop derives from a grant from NOAA to AI2ES (Award NA23OAR40505031) and a center grant to CSDE from the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institutes of Child Health and Human Development via the P2C HD042828 mechanism.
