The purpose of this working group is to enhance the security and resilience of our community’s natural and built infrastructure to saltwater intrusion along the northern Gulf of Mexico.
Status: Active
Saltwater intrusion is of increasing concern along the northern Gulf of Mexico. While pulse events of intrusion have happened in the past due to storms, we are now facing a more continuous threat due primarily to sea-level rise. The goal of this working group is to bring members of various backgrounds and expertise to see what they already know or want to know about saltwater intrusion so that we may identify existing gaps in knowledge and stakeholder needs around saltwater intrusion to better inform resource planning and stormwater management.
