I am so happy to share our recently published paper on post-hazard functionality assessment for communities. The paper culminate over 2 years of work from 14 researchers across different universities. This paper presents a generalized approach for interdependent population-buildings-infrastructure post-hazard functionality assessment at the community-level. Full application of the methodology will be published soon.

NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration selected Firefly Aerospace to launch a trio of Earth science smallsats that will study the formation of storms. The agency said March 4 that it awarded a task order through its Venture-Class Acquisition of Dedicated and Rideshare (VADR) contract to Firefly to launch the three-satellite Investigation of Convective Updrafts (INCUS) mission. NASA did not disclose the value of the task order, a practice it has followed on other VADR awards. The INCUS satellites will launch on a Firefly Alpha rocket from Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia. NASA did not disclose a launch date in its announcement but Firefly, in its own statement, said the launch would take place as soon as 2026. The INCUS mission is working towards a launch in October 2026, according to its website. INCUS will fly three smallsats, each weighing about 100 kilograms, using a Blue Canyon Technologies bus. The satellites will be equipped with Ka-band radars to study cloud convection to better understand the formation of storms. One of the spacecraft will also have a microwave radiometer to track larger-scale weather conditions. The spacecraft will fly in formation, with the second spacecraft flying 30 second behind the first and the third 90 seconds behind the second to help scientists measure vertical transport within the storms. https://lnkd.in/eDEqfhxe

From warming waters to shifting shorelines, Oregon’s Ocean isn’t what it used to be. HB 3786 proposes to invest $3 million into ocean and coastal research so we have the science to understand how are ocean is changing, how species are adapting (or not), and how best we can plan for the future. Here’s where that funding would go: 🔬 Ocean acidification & hypoxia research – making sure our favorite seafood (and the industries that depend on it) have a future. 🏖️ Coastal resilience & erosion studies – keeping communities above sea level where they belong 📊 Nearshore data collection – so we don’t have to guess what’s happening in the nearshore to species and habitats Smart investments in science today will result in stronger, economically vibrant, more resilient coastal communities. 🔗 Follow HB 3786’s progress here: https://lnkd.in/gxCeZSqY 📢 Join the wave! Share this post and help build momentum for science-backed solutions for our coast.
