CSDMS 2025: Exploring Earth's Surface with Models, Data & AI
Extending research on the burden of sea-level rise on the built environment beyond housing
Abstract
Many rural communities are on the front lines of climate change. The need to understand who may be affected, and the ways they may be affected is widely acknowledged as needed for inclusive and cost-effective adaptation planning. In this work, I will explore the potential threat of sea-level rise on non-housing infrastructure (e.g., roads, septic systems) in rural, coastal areas to help inform the impact of their loss on local communities. I will present work that evaluates local accessibility loss during high tides for the entire US coastline (termed “risk of isolation”) for various climate change scenarios, and preliminary evidence from research that suggests that the risk of septic system failures is quite significant in many coastal communities. I will use the discussion to simultaneously highlight under-explored research areas within both engineering and social science that could support more inclusive and efficient adaptation policy.
