   intro_statements:
   - "My work at USGS is aimed at improving our understanding of coastal change processes,\
     \ developing innovative methods for forecasting coastal change, applying these\
     \ methods to identify potential hazards along our Nation\u2019s coastlines,\
     \ and then sharing the information with coastal stakeholders."

   personal_statement: 'Hilary Stockdon is currently the Acting Program Coordinator
     for the Coastal and Marine Hazards and Resources Program with the U.S. Geological
     Survey. For almost 20 years, she has been part of a multifaceted project that
     quantifies how sea level rise, storms and long-term erosion are shaping our
     shorelines. Her research contributions include advances in:Real-time forecasts
     and scenario-based predictions of coastal total water level and geomorphic change
     during stormsUse of wave runup parameterization in coastal hazard assessmentsBarrier
     island response to extreme storms and hurricanesModeling wave swash, setup,
     and runupLidar-derived measures of coastal changeHer work is both fundamental
     and applied: rigorous science on coastal processes is used to create tools for
     decision makers who are responsible for preparedness, response, and resilience
     along our coastlines. Her work on the effects of storms on the coastal communities
     of our Nation has raised public awareness about the value of scientific information
     on coastal vulnerability, helping residents prepare for future events. Most
     recently, she served as a Science Advisor for the Coastal and Marine Hazards
     and Resources Program, helping to develop a National initiative for coastal
     change hazards research and applications.'
