stormwater

Learn about: results of studies evaluating local and regional trends in extreme events, different approaches for evaluating future precipitation, an analysis of current State stormwater infrastructure standards, and a method being considered by the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) for a Climate-Resilient Infrastructure standard.

NOAA’s Climate Program Office and National Centers for Environmental Information, in partnership with The Water Research Foundation, are hosting a five-part webinar series on Our Changing Precipitation. The webinars will take place on Tuesday afternoons (Eastern). Join us to learn more about some of the considerations and methods for working with available precipitation science and information to advance resilience planning.

Attendees will hear in lay terms, and help advance the conversation about, our current ability to project precipitation at temporal and spatial scales relevant for local water infrastructure decision making. You will also learn about some practical ways to take action to build resilience to climate change.
