Abstract:
The changing climate is affecting infrastructure performance and service life all over the world. A key factor in assuring the resilience of transportation infrastructure in the future is the incorporation of climate change into the analysis, design, and management processes. The Infrastructure and Climate Network (ICNet) was established in 2012 to bring together climate scientists, researchers, and practitioners to accelerate new research and adaptation in climate change impacts to transportation infrastructure. This talk will present some of the lessons learned through ICNet efforts and activities.
