This grant, a cooperative agreement between the National Park Service (NPS) and Rutgers University, is established to undertake the critical work of mapping and quantifying the geomorphological changes resulting from Superstorm Sandy. Rutgers University will oversee the project, applying geomorphological information across all components. Their responsibilities include maintaining essential datasets, constructing Digital Elevation Models (DEMs), and producing comprehensive graphics and visuals for reports. Furthermore, Rutgers will lead the project’s organization, conducting DSAS calculations and figure production to accurately quantify vectors of change. The university will also assist in creating post-Sandy geomorphological maps and performing precise calculations to determine changes relative to the pre-Sandy geomorphological feature distribution and dimension. This initiative aims to thoroughly document and understand the storm’s lasting environmental impact.

| Description: | This is not a request for applications; this is just an announcement that NPS and Rutgers University have entered into a cooperative agreement for Rutgers’s work on the Impacts of Superstorm Sandy: Mapping and Quantification of Geomorphological Change GATE, FIIS, ASIS. Rutgers will: Oversee the project and develop and apply the geomorphological information in all three components. Maintain the datasets construct appropriate DEMs, create graphics and visuals for products and reports. Lead project organization and conduct DSAS calculations and figure production to quantify vectors of change. Assist in creation of post-Sandy geomorphological maps and calculations of changes relative to pre-Sandy geomorphological feature distribution and dimension. |
