FCI Names New Student Climate Fellows
|
|
Please join us in congratulating our 6 new FCI Student Climate Fellows!
Each submitted outstanding original ideas for exploring climate-related research projects AND plans to communicate their findings. This program will not only help prepare our next generation of climate leaders, but it will also help inform communities in Florida about these urgent issues.

Transforming Suburban Florida Through Resiliency + Recovery
|
|
This interdisciplinary studio, led by the University of Florida, proposes a series of “suburban retrofits” to envision greater resilience, equity, and sustainability in Southwest Florida, which was recently devastated by Hurricane Ian. Multi-disciplinary teams focus on the city of Cape Coral, a poster child for Florida’s rampant post World War II suburban development, to explore design interventions systems at the scale of city and neighborhood.

Coastal Flood Resilience Project Advocates for Increased NSF Funding
|
|
The Coastal Flood Resilience Project recently provided Congress with a letter advocating increased funding for the National Science Foundation to expand research of glacier and ice sheet loss as needed to improve projections of sea level rise and support communities developing coastal flood resilience plans.
|
|
At this year’s institute, we’ll explore the connection between public interest communications and activism, work collectively to bridge the researcher-practitioner divide, dive into community engaged scholarship and more.
The event is pay-what-you-can, with a suggested registration fee of $60 for students, $100 for non-students and $50 for those joining us online.

If you have any climate-related research, news items, or events that you would like to submit for consideration in the next newsletter, please email them to info@floridaclimateinstitute.org
