The Resilient Vermont team is pleased to invite you to attend our second...

ACADEMIC RESILIENCE COLLABORATIVE VIRTUAL DISCUSSION
Thursday, October 15th 2020 at 12pm

TOPIC
Riverfront Views vs. Functional Floodplains: The mountainous landscape of Vermont led communities to be built in or around floodplains. Locations close to rivers continue to be strategically important for development. How do we resolve the conflict between the need for development in the sought-after real estate in and around our river corridors and the need to maintain these properties as functional flood plains?

PANELISTS
Kristen Underwood, Research Assistant Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Vermont
George Springston, Research Associate of Geology, Norwich University
Mike Kline, Owner of Fluvial Matters, LLC. and Affiliate of the Gund Institute for Environment, University of Vermont
Simon Pearish, Assistant Professor of Biology, Norwich University, will moderate.
