Using an Urban Growth Model Framework to Project the Impacts of Future Flooding on Coastal Populations
Urbanization in coastal areas of the United States is increasing as simultaneously the East and Gulf coasts of the United States face increasing threats from climate change from hurricanes and storm surge inundation. This study will evaluate urban growth using a cellular automata model to analyze …
