Resilient Texas: Planning for Sea Level Rise

How can we interpret sea level rise data in our area?  How can we use these types of data in local coastal managment and planning decisions?  Join us as we aim to dig into these questions and examine how best to prepare for coastal flood hazards and sea level rise in our region.

Join us with special guest, Sea Level Expert John Englander (http://www.johnenglander.net/) as we investigate how to adapt to sea level rise in the coming years.  Sign up for John Englander's Newsletter HERE.
