    Researchers at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) are working on a set of tools to assist coastal planners in forecasting the evolution of coastlines and coastal dunes to help inform decision making and basic planning efforts.

    Probabilistic models aid the long-term assessment of coastal dune stability

    Researchers at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) are working on a set of tools to assist coastal planners in forecasting the evolution of coastlines and coastal dunes to help inform decision making and basic planning efforts.
  • Using natural and nature-based features (NNBF), which are measures and techniques that can be incorporated into shore protection, improved coastal resilience can be achieved while producing additional economic, environmental and social benefits.

    Natural features to play crucial role in building a more resilient Great Lakes coastline

    Communities along the Great Lakes coastline are experiencing increased frequency in coastal flooding and erosion, causing property damage, putting lives at risk, and disrupting local economies. With the support of the Engineering With Nature® (EWN) program, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) can provide technical direction and guidance to USACE Districts around the nation to look at innovative ways of improving coastal resilience.
