Climate Adaptation Project at the University of Florida

The Climate Adaptation Project at the University of Florida focuses on developing strategies to help communities and ecosystems cope with the impacts of climate change, such as rising sea levels, increased storms, and changing weather patterns. Using scientific research, they assess vulnerabilities and design practical solutions—like improved infrastructure, water management, and land use planning—that enhance resilience. The project aims to support policymakers, local governments, and residents in making informed decisions to protect Florida’s environment, economy, and public safety from climate-related risks, ensuring long-term sustainability and community well-being.
