Storm Surge Predictions from Ocean to Subgrid Scales
Jessica is CoE Masters Scholar of the Year for Research
Jessica’s research is centered on finding answers to this question: During a hurricane, where will the beaches and dunes ‘fail’ along our coast? These systems are heavily engineered – communities invest in and rely on beaches and dunes to protect homes and lives during storms. She has become a leader in research with computational models to advance understanding of storm-driven erosion and flooding of coastal regions.
This award was publicized by both the CoE and our department.
Congratulations to Jessica!
Jenero selected as Global Change Research Fellow
The fellowship program is designed to train the next generation of global change scientists by providing financial, scientific, and professional development support for graduate students who are interested in multi-disciplinary research. They come together across disciplines to discover, collaborate, and share their knowledge with diverse stakeholders. Learn more about the program at the SECASC web site.
Congratulations to Jenero!
