The development and application of vulnerability assessment tools to predict future impact of flooding due to sea-level rise and storm surge in Southwest Florida

In a cooperative venture among Florida Gulf Coast University, the University of Florida, and the U.S. Geological Survey, supported by funding from NOAA
and the FL DEP, a collection of vulnerability analysis tools (ACUNE: Adaptation of Coastal Urban Natural Resources) has been developed to predict the extent
and depth of seawater flooding due to sea-level rise (SLR), nuisance tides, and storm surge across the 3 SWFL counties of Collier, Lee, and Charlotte. ACUNE
employs a highly resolved digital elevation model for the region; accounts for the flooding attenuation effects of green infrastructure (mangroves, salt marsh, dunes); and incorporates the effects of SLR, tides, waves, and storms in a changing climate through 2100. Local communities – cities, counties, and civic groups – have provided the location of their critical natural, cultural, and urban assets, which have been mapped within ACUNE, giving the same communities the opportunity to assess the vulnerability of their most valued assets for adaptation planning. Examples from the region’s jurisdictions will be shared.
