Interactive Visioning Part 1 - Figuring Sea Level Rise
Date: 5/17/2013; 88 minutes
How much will the seas rise in any given spot? When? What impacts will be felt? Who will be obliged to move out of harm's way? What can be done to mitigate or adapt to these circumstances? To begin to address these questions this program concentrates on issues of mediation and remediation: What does it mean that interactive visioning tools are proliferating in research labs, government agencies such as NOAA and the USGS, and activist organizations? Doug Marcy, a Coastal Hazards Specialist at the NOAA National Ocean Service / Coastal Services Center (CSC) in Charleston, South Carolina, explores visualizing sea level rise and coastal flooding impacts.
