Changing Climate
Adaptation to a changing climate involves research and its effects on the safety, health and welfare of the public as it interfaces with civil engineering infrastructure.
The Committee on Adaptation to a Changing Climate was formed in 2011 to evaluate the technical requirements and civil engineering challenges for adapting to a changing climate.
