In Bologna [where it's 97F/36C!] for a @CmccClimate workshop dedicated to coastal flooding tools for @cityofsavannah & @ChathamEMA. These experts are developing high-res coastal models that leverage our Smart Sea Level Sensor network. [thread]pic.twitter.com/aHiXvhKP3S
Here Nadia Pinardi 
schools us on advances in ocean forecasting, w/ nod to her mentor Allan Robinson. @azivian and @manu_ocean soak it all up. She believes distributed sensor networks like ours are key to forecasting a range of ocean variables with high-res, integrated models.pic.twitter.com/B4BdNkOawE
What's an "integrated model?" To address compound flood risk for coastal communities, combine an atmospheric model (for rainfall) with land hydrology model (for runoff) with ocean model (for ocean level). All at high resolution... Here's the 10m ocean grid. #sciartpic.twitter.com/dOxl2toyxN
These models need data for validation, and that's where the sea level sensors come in. Our current network is 35 sensors, including 2 that we co-installed at @NOAA's Ft. Pulaski tide gauge - the only one along Georgia's coast!pic.twitter.com/sIsyh0wgjS
Key to this project is the fact that sea level rise (on timescales of hours to decades timescales) doesn't happen in a static ocean, like a bathtub. So our tools for risk assessment must reflect dynamical reality, ideally driven by high-res data streams.
And this summer we are thrilled to welcome @opensavannah's @codeforamerica Fellows, as all as @GtScii intern Kate Ferenscik, all focused on engaging Savannah's lower-income communities in partnership w the Harambee House @CFEJSAV. #climatejustice
And in case many of you are wondering what a coral paleoclimatologist is doing with sea level sensors, this is part of my answer to the climate challenge. Scientists (and many others!) can redeploy our skills to serve our local communities.
