Currently, Sea Level Rise (SLR)\u2010driven coastal hazards associated with groundwater, such as inundation and saltwater intrusion, have not been assessed across the state despite severe impacts in some communities. University of Southern California (USC) Sea Grant funded a project to assess the exposure of coastal communities across California to SLR\u2010driven groundwater inundation. The project aims to integrate the groundwater projections into the Our Coast Our Future (OCOF) web tool for data dissemination and access for California stakeholders to understand how to apply them to local coastal planning. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n      \n      \n    <\/div>\n  \n  \n  \n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n  \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n<div\n  class=\"cc--component-container cc--rich-text \"\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  >\n  <div class=\"c--component c--rich-text\"\n    \n      >\n\n    \n      \n<div class=\"f--field f--wysiwyg\">\n\n    \n  <h3><b>Key Results<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The project has finalized groundwater projections and is working on flood models\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">USGS published the study\u2019s cliff retreat data for Northern California on Sciencebase.gov<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>Project Impacts &amp; Application:<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OCOF public tool launched in 2023, and data is being added<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eight stakeholder organizations are already using the data, including the California Department of Transportation as part of the 2023 update to the State Highway System Management Plan<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">USC Sea Grant created a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/storymaps.arcgis.com\/stories\/ca6d10de4caf4991914079c84ba865b2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Storymap<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>Principal Investigators:<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Patrick Barnard, Ph.D., US Geological Survey\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Michael Fitzgibbon, Point Blue\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kevin Befus, University of Arkansas<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>Funding: <\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">California Ocean Protection Council, 2018-2021<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><b>Additional Info<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/ourcoastourfuture.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/ourcoastourfuture.org\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/coastalscience.noaa.gov\/project\/exploring-ecosystem-and-community-vulnerability-to-surface-and-subsurface-flooding-in-california\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/coastalscience.noaa.gov\/project\/exploring-ecosystem-and-community-vulnerability-to-surface-and-subsurface-flooding-in-california\/<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"cta-link\" href=\"\/uscseagrant\/publications-database\/\">Access our Publications Database to view publications from this project or other related topics<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":74,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-content-detail.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1972","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
