海角社区

海角社区 scientists are learning how to manage sediment to prevent land loss and improve hurricane preparedness in Louisiana's southernmost port, a key place for the U.S. energy industry, but also one of the nation's most vulnerable places.

鈥淚 would say land loss is one of the greatest threats to the port and southern Louisiana,鈥� said Kevin Xu, the James P. Morgan Distinguished Professor in the Department of Oceanography & Coastal Sciences in the 海角社区 College of the Coast & Environment

海角社区's coastal research is applicable to the energy industry, coastal communities, and infrastructure, not just on the Gulf Coast but across the U.S. and the world.
