NEER: Improving resilience of the nearshore during extreme events

Britt Raubenheimer, PhDSenior Scientist, Applied Ocean Physics and EngineeringWoods Hole Oceanographic InstitutionPrincipal Investigator, Nearshore Extreme Event Reconnaissance team, NEER NEER: Improving resilience of the nearshore during extreme eventsWoods Hole scientist Britt Raubenheimer talks with host Dan Zehner about coastal resiliency. Raubenheimer is principal investigator for NSF-funded Nearshore Extreme Event Reconnaissance team, NEER. NEER deploys multi-disciplinary researchers to collect data on nearshore systems before, during and after extreme events. She discusses the 2020 NEER mission during Hurricane Laura – which made useful discoveries about the efficacy of breakwater structures in the Delta marshlands. NEER website: https://neerassociation.org/ NHERI extreme events organizations: https://www.designsafe-ci.org/....facilities/converge/ @NHERI_EER  NEER: Mejora de la resistencia de las zonas costeras en caso de fenómenos extremos El científico de Woods Hole Britt Raubenheimer habla con el presentador Dan Zehner sobre la resistencia costera. Raubenheimer es el investigador principal del equipo NEER (Nearshore Extreme Event Reconnaissance), financiado por la NSF. NEER despliega investigadores multidisciplinares para recoger datos sobre los sistemas costeros antes, durante y después de los fenómenos extremos. Habla de la misión NEER 2020 durante el huracán Laura, que permitió hacer útiles descubrimientos sobre la eficacia de las estructuras de rompeolas en las marismas del Delta
