This event was a NOAA and regional partners briefing on how the Climate Adaptation Partnerships (CAP) program builds localized capacity to inform on the ground adaptation solutions and better meet community goals when addressing complex climate hazards. Examples of complex climate hazards include compounding risks such as those posed by wildfire, smoke, and heat; or unexpected and overwhelming […]

The Southern Climate Impacts Planning Program is hosting this webinar to demonstrate the newly redesigned Simple Planning Tool for Climate Hazards v2.0 (SPT). We will train attendees on how to use the tool to incorporate weather and climate data and information into their plans, provide several examples in our demonstration, and include time for feedback […]

The South Central Climate Resilience Forum (SCCRF) will be an in-person 3-day event focused on fostering meaningful dialogue and action on equitable climate resilience and adaptation across the region. The Forum will bring together representatives from non-profit organizations, all levels of government, community groups, the private sector, and academia from Arkansas, Kansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and […]

Have you ever been perplexed by hazard mitigation plan (HMP) requirements? Is your jurisdiction’s HMP expired? Is your jurisdiction lacking resources to get the plan done? Do you have ideas for how the process could be improved? Do you wish your HMP had a broader impact on your community?  If you answered YES to any […]

With the new Phase IV grant funding and subsequent upcoming research, SCIPP has added a new area of focus centered around “climate justice.” Climate justice directly connects to previously-researched areas by SCIPP, including disaster resilience and climate change adaptation, in increasingly meaningful ways. Simone Domingue, a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow for SCIPP, hosted a series of webinars to raise awareness of climate justice’s […]

The Southern Climate Impacts Planning Program invites undergraduate students from Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana to participate in a 5-day, all-expenses-paid program designed to introduce students to the topic of climate adaptation. Climate Adaptation is the process of identifying both present and future climate effects and determining how communities can adjust to the impacts of present […]

The National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) teamed up with the Southern Climate Impacts Planning Program (SCIPP) at Louisiana State University (LSU) to host a 1-day regional meeting to access and understand the information needs of small- to medium-scale water utilities, improve on existing tools, and build additional resources to meet water sector needs at […]
