A Federal Agency is offering this grant to Northern Arizona University to advance understanding and prediction of coastal erosion hazards. This grant supports research focused on comprehensively understanding the physical changes occurring in vital coastal landforms, including beaches, dunes, and sea cliffs. The project will deploy advanced Structure from Motion (SfM) techniques within remote sensing methodologies to effectively monitor and precisely analyze these transformations over time. The core purpose of this initiative is to significantly improve predictive models for coastal erosion. By providing critical, data-driven insights into these dynamic processes, this funding aims to enhance hazard mitigation and inform robust coastal management strategies, ultimately safeguarding vulnerable coastal regions from the impacts of environmental shifts and erosion.
