Podcasts about flooding

Tide gauges are a critical yet often overlooked tool in our fight to understand and respond to climate change. In this episode, Dr. Andrew Thaler returns to the podcast to share a powerful story about installing a tide gauge in his hometown of St. Michaels, Maryland. He breaks down how this simple device provides crucial data for flood risk, sea level rise, and community resilience, bringing science closer to home. Community science is at the heart of Dr. Thaler's work. We explore how grassroots efforts, low-cost technology, and open-source tools empower residents to monitor and respond to environmental changes themselves. Whether you're a policymaker, scientist, or citizen concerned about the impacts of coastal flooding, this episode will deepen your understanding of how data can drive change from the bottom up.

Guest: Pamela James, CEO & Founder of Paloma St. JamesIt's no mystery that industrialization has a negative impact on the environment; however, an unexpected contributor is the fashion industry. Recent studies have shown that the production of textiles contributes nearly to 8-10% of global carbon emissions, superseding emissions from the aviation and shipping industries combined. Designer and CEO, Pamela James, joins us today to discuss her take on sustainable fashion and the concept of modularity. We're a society of mass production and overconsumption, but today you'll see that less really is more.

Guest: Dr. Levi Boggs, Georgia Tech Research InstituteWhen we think of lightning, we picture bolts striking the ground during a thunderstorm—but not all electrical activity stays within the lower atmosphere. High above the clouds, mysterious and fleeting flashes of light dance across the sky—sprites, blue jets, and gigantic jets—phenomena that are still not fully understood. Today on Weather Geeks, we're exploring the enigmatic world of upper atmospheric electrical phenomena with Dr. Levi Boggs, whose latest research is shedding new light on these elusive events. From cutting-edge observations to the impact these events may have on aviation, space weather, and even our understanding of lightning itself, we're thrilled to have Dr. Boggs here to break it all down!Chapters00:00 Introduction to Upper Atmospheric Electrical Phenomena04:58 Transient Luminous Events: Types and Characteristics10:58 Differences Between TLEs and Traditional Lightning16:02 Observing TLEs: Opportunities and Challenges20:58 Research Focus: Gigantic Jets and Their Impacts25:14 Challenges in Studying Transient Luminous Events28:22 The Importance of Observations in TLE Research31:31 Field Campaigns and Citizen Science33:05 Understanding Lightning Through TLE Research36:24 Future Aspirations in TLE ResearchSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Despite wide recognition of water's essential role, water-related risks are increasing. Whether dealing with droughts or flooding, water can lead to significant challenges for individuals, communities, and businesses, requiring a robust water management strategy that identifies the risks, puts hazard mitigation actions in place, and leverages insurance as a final layer of protection. In this episode of Risk in Context, Marsh McLennan's Swenja Surminski and Daniel Kaniewski and Henk Ovink, Executive Director and Founding Commissioner for the Global Commission on the Economics of Water, discuss some of the water-related risks that businesses and communities are facing and examine risk management strategies that can enhance resilience and sustainability. You can access a transcript of the episode here. Visit Marsh's Hurricane Resource Center to learn more about preparing for and responding to tropical storms.

GUEST: Dr. Dev Niyogi, Professor at University of Texas at AustinCities aren't just concrete jungles—they're microclimates of their own, shaping the weather in ways you might not expect. From intensifying heat waves to influencing severe storms, urban landscapes play a critical role in our atmosphere. But how exactly does this work, and what can we do to make cities more resilient in the face of extreme weather? Today on Weather Geeks, we're diving into the fascinating intersection of meteorology and urban landscapes with one of the leading experts in the field, Dr. Dev Niyogi. His research has uncovered how cities modify their own weather, impact storm patterns, and even contribute to climate change on a local scale!Chapters00:00 The Urban Climate Connection08:08 Understanding Urban Weather Dynamics15:13 The Role of Cities in Extreme Weather19:56 Engineering Resilient Urban Environments25:12 Future Directions in Urban MeteorologySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this week's episode, host Daniel Raimi talks with Angela Parker, an assistant professor at the University of Denver and member of the Mandan, Hidatsa, and Cree Tribes. Parker recently published a book on the history of the Three Affiliated Tribes—the Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara—who live on the Fort Berthold Reservation in North Dakota. This land, situated along the Missouri River, became the site of the Garrison Dam, a project built by the US Army Corps of Engineers in the 1940s and 1950s that flooded parts of the reservation and forced roughly 90 percent of the Native population to relocate to higher ground. Parker discusses the cultural and ecological significance of the Missouri River to the Three Affiliated Tribes, the efforts of community members to resist the dam's construction, and the lasting negative impacts of the dam.

Guest: Stephen Wooten, ResearcherAs a parent, there's nothing more important than making sure your child is safe—especially when severe weather threatens their school day. Whether it's the decision to delay, dismiss early, or shelter in place, we rely on school officials to make the right call. But as any parent knows, those decisions aren't always black and white. Should schools be more cautious, or are they sometimes too quick to pull the trigger? And how much say should parents have in the process, if at all? Today on the show, we're chatting with Stephen Wooten, a researcher who has been studying how parents feel about the tough calls schools have to make.

Floods are the most destructive natural disaster and, thanks to a heating climate, the damages caused by floods are expected to worsen significantly. Flood mitigation of the past, such as levies and dams, has proved inadequate and often counterproductive by misallocating precious resources. Tim Palmer argues that it's time to start relocating our built environment out of the places with a high likelihood of flooding.

The discussion covers the complexities and potential impacts of tariffs, including their use as leverage in foreign policy and economic strategy.

Pro-Hamas Radicals and Student Visas: The podcast discusses the revocation of student visas for individuals involved in pro-Hamas protests. Ted Cruz emphasizes that while American citizens have First Amendment rights, foreign students on visas do not, and the government has no obligation to allow individuals who support anti-American activities to stay in the country. Foreign Money in Universities: The episode highlights concerns about the large amounts of foreign money, particularly from adversarial nations, flowing into American universities. Ted Cruz discusses the potential for this money to influence American education and politics, advocating for transparency and penalties for universities accepting funds from hostile nations.
