AKRF identifies, assesses, and designs protective adaptations to the effects of climate change—namely sea level rise, increased precipitation, and extreme heat—on coastal and inland communities. Our interdisciplinary approach to climate resilience encapsulates strategies to address inland, riverine, and coastal flooding; designs that enhance community equity; engineering plans that provide resilient pathways; and policy development that support resilience and adaptation. We also communicate climate science and climate change risk to stakeholders, collaborate with communities on mitigation and adaptation strategies, and share the narrative of a project or program applying for grant funding. Our innovative designs mitigate heat, create habitat, reduce pollution, and protect communities from multifarious threats. We also support the long-term maintenance and operations of green stormwater infrastructure and other climate resilience solutions.
