Paper featured as EOS Research Spotlight: How Water Flows Toward Cities During Hurricanes

Our paper “Significant Rural Contributions to Severe Coastal Urban Flooding Through Flow Connectivity” was featured as a Research Spotlight on Eos, the science news magazine of AGU.

The spotlight highlights how topography in surrounding rural areas plays a dominant role in funneling water toward coastal cities during hurricane events, and how coastal wetlands help absorb storm surge and protect urban areas.
