The Influence of Scale in Modeling Social Vulnerability and Disaster Assistance
Retreat from flood zones
Coastal communities are increasingly vulnerable due to sea level rise and population growth. Managed retreat is commonly recognized as a strategy that yields multifaced benefits in community adaptation. However, limited studies have explored the cumulative effects of sea level rise, population migration, and managed retreat on the community resilience. This study presents a parcel-level land use change model to analysis land-based flood mitigatio…
The Dimensions of Individual Support for Coastal Hazard Mitigation
Although it is largely accepted that disasters offer windows of opportunity for adoption of risk-reduction measures, the dimensions of support for hazard mitigation following a disaster are not well understood. Drawing on a survey of Upper Texas Coast residents 9 months after Hurricane Harvey (2017), this study explores public support for various types of hazard mitigation within the context of a natural hazard focusing event. Regression models e…
Mapping cross-scale economic impacts of storm surge events
Cartographic display of cross-scale phenomena and user-centered design are considered through a discussion of the development of an interactive web map depicting local-to-national economic impacts of hurricane storm surge events in Galveston Bay, Texas. Map development and design (as informed by stakeholder focus groups) is described, including approaches to presenting complex, cross-scale impacts of surge events across multiple years and scenari…
Strategic property buyouts to enhance flood resilience
The impact of recent flood events, such as hurricane Harvey in 2017 which affected the upper Texas coastal region, has sparked new proposals for buying out damaged properties to reduce flood risk and return them to natural open space. Traditionally, buyouts have been carried out with little regard for non-monetary benefits, such as ecological and aesthetic values, but have been driven by a cost–benefit calculus that leads to a reactionary, ad hoc…
