Scientists have gone ahead and started to map sea-level-rise scenarios in New Jersey, New York City and flood-prone communities along the Gulf of Mexico to help guide local development and planning.
Last month, in conjunction with Shawn-Yu Lin of the Sandia National Laboratories in New Mexico, the group showed that photonic crystals can guide light on a far smaller scale than was previously possible.
We drafted a set of goals and principles that we believe must guide the recovery and restoration of the Gulf of Mexico, our coast and our communities in the wake of the BP drilling disaster.
