The award will support the design of nature-based solutions including living shorelines and marsh restoration in flood-prone areas of Camden County, Georgia.
After discovering a historic bird survey in the Pacific Northwest, Georgia Tech’s Ben Freeman located the original sites, repeating the surveys three decades later.
Georgia Tech researchers are developing solutions to monitor and forecast flooding, as well as restore ecosystems to prevent future flooding. These efforts support communities’ resilience in the face of climate change and keep the U.S. secure.
Georgia Tech researchers analyze seasonal differences of SO₂ and sulfate concentrations in the atmosphere over decades to determine the long-term impact of sustained air quality control efforts.
Understanding how salt marsh grass stays healthy is of crucial ecological importance, and studying the ways bacteria interact with these plants is key.
