Five Year Science Plan for the Tampa Bay Study
Project Leader: Kimberly Yates - April 15, 2003

Task 1: Mapping - Hazards Vulnerability

1f. Analyze current and predicted future risk, exposure, and vulnerability of the population and built environment to major natural and man-made hazards characterizing the Tampa Bay region. This will include hurricanes, storm surge, flooding, high winds, tornadoes, lightning, sink holes, coastal erosion, sea level rise, landfills, water quality, and wildfires. Critical Science Gaps IE and IG.
