Ocean Encounters

Shannon Hulst-5

This spring, WHOI Sea Grant’s Floodplain manager Shannon Hulst was a featured panelist in WHOI’s Ocean Encounters series. The live Zoom conversation called "Rising Seas, Resilient Coasts," which reached an audience of 2000 viewers, also included Chris Piecuch, a WHOI sea level scientist and Hannah Wagner, the resilience manager for the City of Boston in a discussion of the drivers and consequences of rising sea levels.  Moderated by WHOI’s Veronique LaCapra, the evening’s discussion concluded adaptation strategies to protect lives and livelihoods by making our coastlines and infrastructure more resilient.
