The resulting products will be useful in monitoring the far-reaching impacts of major storms like Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton.</p> <p>“This major investment, made possible thanks to President Biden’s historic Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, will boost NOAA’s efforts to address the rising threat of extreme flooding caused by climate change, help communities mitigate the economic impacts from these disasters and keep families safe as we tackle the climate crisis,” said U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo.</p> <p>In recent years, the increasing frequency and severity of flooding, extreme precipitation and other extreme weather events have highlighted the urgent need for better prediction and resilience strategies. Rising sea levels, driven by climate change, are exacerbating these challenges and putting communities at greater risk.</p> <p>As part of the <a href="https://www.noaa.gov/infrastructure-law">Bipartisan Infrastructure Law</a> (BIL), these funds will help communities plan for a range of climate impacts, provide tools that emergency managers can use to improve safety during floods and other weather hazards and offer information about the impacts of extreme weather on vulnerable populations. </p> <p>“By incorporating state-of-the-art science and technology into actionable guidance, we will provide communities with the tools needed to better prepare for and recover from extreme weather and climate disasters,” said NOAA Administrator Rick Spinrad, Ph.D. “These efforts will enhance our nation’s resilience and support NOAA’s critical work to improve the data and information available for science-based decision making.”</p> <p>The $7.6 million in cooperative institute awards is part of a total $13.8 million of BIL funds provided to date for NOAA’s National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS) for flood and precipitation projects. The balance of the funding is supporting flood and precipitation projects through contracts and federal staff work. NESDIS research provides disadvantaged, underserved and socially vulnerable communities — including urban and rural areas — with equitable access to expanded products and services, and complements <a href="https://www.noaa.gov/news-release/biden-harris-administration-noaa-funds-over-2278-m-to-advance-research">BIL-funded efforts</a> managed by other parts of NOAA.</p> <p>Research funding is supporting the following cooperative institutes:</p> <ul> <li aria-level="1"><strong><a href="https://cires.colorado.edu/ciesrds" class=" ext-link-after" target="_blank">Cooperative Institute for Earth System Research and Data Science (CIESRDS)<span class="visually-hidden"> offsite link</span></a> at the University of Colorado Boulder</strong>, $3.8 million for management of coastal inundation and flood-related data. The project will use this information to develop products that allow communities to understand and predict environmental changes that affect coastal regions. In addition, cloud-based infrastructure will make NOAA coastal data more accessible and easier to use.</li> <li aria-level="1"><strong><a href="https://cisess.umd.edu/" class=" ext-link-after" target="_blank">Cooperative Institute for Satellite Earth System Studies (CISESS) <span class="visually-hidden"> offsite link</span></a>at the University of Maryland</strong>, $1.7 million for flood mapping and improving satellite-derived data about land surface conditions such as soil moisture and tree cover. The enhanced land surface data will be used for climate change research, agriculture and forest monitoring and improving the accuracy of NOAA’s National Water Model, which simulates and forecasts how water moves throughout the nation’s rivers and streams.</li> <li aria-level="1"><strong><a href="https://ncics.org/programs/cisess/" class=" ext-link-after" target="_blank">Cooperative Institute for Satellite Earth System Studies (CISESS) <span class="visually-hidden"> offsite link</span></a>at North Carolina State University</strong>, $1.5 million to use satellite- and land-based data to develop extensive climate information about flooding and precipitation. Information on the duration, frequency and size of floods will be used for monthly, seasonal and annual assessments of regional flood events that can be used by policymakers and the public. The assessments will include narratives about socioeconomic impacts on vulnerable populations, infrastructure and agriculture. A comprehensive, high-quality new data set of hourly-precipitation information will help businesses and communities better understand the effects of extreme precipitation.</li> <li aria-level="1"><strong><a href="https://ciglr.seas.umich.edu/" class=" ext-link-after" target="_blank">Cooperative Institute for Great Lakes Research (CIGLR)<span class="visually-hidden"> offsite link</span></a> at the University of Michigan</strong>, $480,000 to develop a near-real-time flood mapping system driven by Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite data.
