University of Delaware researchers led by DSI affiliated faculty member Carolyn Voter, assistant professor of civil and environmental engineering and Earth sciences, are developing data-based tools for assessing extreme weather impacts at coastal military facilities. The research aims to produce a modeling toolbox that incorporates data such as changing rainfall patterns and rising sea levels to help the military identify and evaluate infrastructure needs. The toolbox will be used to screen six military installations, including Dover Air Force Base, in Dover, Delaware, with a focus on infrastructure systems for drinking water, wastewater and stormwater management.
