2019 National Water Center Innovators Program Summer Institute

Application Deadline: January 15th
CUAHSI is soliciting applications from students who wish to participate in the 2019 National Water Center (NWC) Summer Institute under the auspices of the NWC’s Innovator’s Program. The Summer Institute will take place at the University of Alabama and the National Water Center from June 10 – July 26, 2019. Student research fellows will collaborate intensively for seven weeks to work on projects designed to contribute to the NWC goals of enhancing water-related products and decision-support services across the country. To facilitate this process, project themes have been defined in advance. The Summer Institute will be led by faculty theme leads and daily oversight will be provided by student course coordinators.
Students participating in the Summer Institute will be grouped into teams organized around projects defined by the theme leaders and pre-selected topics. While there may be some overlap with the students’ individual MS/PhD research projects, the expectation is that the work and research done during the Summer Institute will be a separate, self-contained project.
The 2019 Summer Institute will explore projects around the following themes:

  1. Coupled inland-coastal hydraulics
  2. Scaling hydrologic and hydraulic models from small basins to regional watersheds
  3. Utilizing hydroinformatics to address flood inundation
  4. Support remote sensing of water information through engagement with the computer science community

Questions should be submitted to Danielle Tijerina at dtijerina@cuahsi.org.

A Workshop with Urbanova Partners and Ramboll

The workshop will be led by Urbanova and senior scientists from Ramboll’s Environment and Health Division covering hyper-local air quality, indoor air quality and the relationship of cross laminated timber (CLT) building materials and health. Additionally, The Center for Active Design, the New York-based leading non-profit using design to foster healthy and engaged communities will discuss civic guidelines to achieve trust, participation and stewardship; Urbanova partner, Gallup will discuss people-centered analytics to create meaningful change; WSU’s Laboratory for Atmospheric Research will discuss local health and air quality research initiatives; and Katerra will discuss views on the present and future of intelligent CLT buildings.

The workshop objective is to extend and further strengthen our local and external network of public, academic and private communities with the shared goal of identifying more strategies to ‘harness data, gain insights and solve urban challenges in new ways.’ It all starts with helping Spokane be a more livable, healthy and sustainable community.

Please join us for a lively conversation! We will engage participants in
imagining what is possible as we ‘think big, start small and go fast’ to develop
a living laboratory to design cities of the future in our University District. The
application of health and environment frameworks in future projects and
businesses applies directly to Urbanova’s objective to improve the economic,
social and environmental equity and resilience in communities.
