Palmer Township, PA, US
Project Description: Developing a Comprehensive Flood Mitigation Strategy for Palmer Township: A Community-Driven Approach to Managing Riverine Flooding and Stormwater Hazards.Learn more about the project here: https://thrivingearthexchange.org/project/palmer-township-paResponsibilities:Stage 1 – Completed:• Supported Palmer Township’s community-driven flood mitigation initiative as a Volunteer Data Scientist.• Sourced, preprocessed, and analysed climate and reanalysis datasets (e.g, ERA5, CMIP) to inform flood readiness and climate resilience planning.• Documented technical requirements and analytical methods for flood prediction and risk communication.Stage 2 – Ongoing:• Developing public-facing, actionable outputs tailored to both community members and decision-makers, including: o Public repository with ERA5-based “Flood Readiness” snapshot (1/3/6/24-hour and 3/7-day rainfall; top-soil moisture) and a one-page “how-to” guide for accessibility. o Climate model daily rainfall comparison with ERA5, scoring framework, and plain-language summary of results for both scientific and community audiences. o Automated PDF snapshots for local officials, monthly digest charts, and geolabeled visualizations customized for Palmer Township.Stage 3 – Planned:• Engaging directly with community stakeholders and residents to ensure findings are understandable, relevant, and actionable for flood preparedness.• Creating additional open, transparent resources — alongside the public repository — that also support other scientists in replicating methods and building on the work for broader environmental and climate applications.
