The integrity of coastal homes, businesses, and infrastructure can be threatened by hazards associated with event-driven changes, such as extreme storms and their impacts on beach and dune erosion, or longer-term, cumulative changes associated with coastal and marine processes, such as sea-level rise. Scientists working on Coastal Change Hazards conduct basic and applied research and provide relevant science-based products to assist the Nation with these coastal change hazard challenges. By building a community with a broad range of expertise, CCH facilitates the integration of diverse coastal science and the exchange of new ideas and approaches across the Coastal and Marine Hazards and Resources Program (CMHRP). Innovative collaboration is encouraged in order to identify and address the Nation\u2019s needs and coastal change hazards problems. Through observation and modeling, CCH develops robust and accessible coastal change assessments that help improve the lives, property, and economic prosperity of the Nation\u2019s coastal communities, habitats, and natural resources." }, { "@type": "TextObject", "text": "The result of close coordination and collaboration between SEC, TCA, and Research is a CCH program focus that aims to:" }, { "@type": "TextObject", "text": "Discover the USGS coastal data and products you need with the Coastal Science Navigator." }, { "@type": "TextObject", "text": "CCH is a program focus led and executed by a community of USGS scientists, technicians, and communicators working together to develop advanced capabilities to observe, understand, and forecast changes to the Nation\u2019s coast with immediate and\u202flong-term\u202fapplications.
