About Session

Hurricanes cause catastrophic damage and loss of life worldwide, and their impacts may worsen in the coming decades due to rapid coastal development, coupled with sea-level rise and possibly increasing hurricane activity. Here, Ning Lin *10 CEE, professor of civil and environmental engineering at Princeton, introduces a holistic modeling framework for hurricane hazard projection and risk analysis. She will discuss a few application examples, including quantifying hurricane-blackout-heatwave compound risk and developing adaptive coastal protection strategies.
