This much needed research will work to integrate nature-based solutions (NBS) into risk science and insurance. The research, conducted in partnership with the University of California Santa Cruz, Center for Coastal Cl...
This project aims to harmonize water resources infrastructure, such as reservoirs and levees, with agricultural land management across the U.S., presenting nature-based solutions for improved water quality. Our object...
Water level management (WLM) is an important management approach for many different benefits at reservoirs including threatened and endangered species (TES) management.  Whooping Cranes (WHCR) are an endangered specie...
Understanding the social and economic landscape is important for nature-based projects. Unfortunately, many standard USACE business practices present institutional obstacles for identifying stakeholders and learning a...
This project proposes to develop innovative concretes with environmentally sustainable alternative binders that deliver excellent chemical and mechanical resilience with significantly increased biological compatibilit...
Large navigable rivers have been modified in ways that channelize main channels and isolate off-channel aquatic areas to concentrate flow to create safe and efficient navigation channels.  Channelization eliminat...
