The City of Boston is tackling the challenges associated with climate change head on. In a city where a densely populated highly urbanized meets the sea, the city is doing the hard work to prepare for sea level rise, increasing urban temperatures, greater precipitation, and other risks through their robust and comprehensive climate analysis and action plan, Climate Ready Boston.

The purpose of this study was to investigate what role NYC coastal green infrastructure (GI) played in building damages during Sandy. Specifically, the researchers wished to determine whether damages can be adequately predicted using only discrete physical relationships, such as topographic, distance to the coast, or proximity to a green space.
