(Sub)urban Restoration & Resilience
Climate change makes New Jersey's densely populated (sub)urban communities and their critical infrastructure vulnerable to threats from storm events. At the same time, New Jersey's post-industrial heritage offers an unprecedented opportunity to convert brownfields and other underutilized lands into usable open space and habitat for diverse species. CUES provides scientific and design support to communities on a wide range of land management, restoration, and resilience issues.
