Understanding Extreme Weather Events: Impacts of Extreme Precipitation and the Urban Heat Island. Moderator: Sherri Hunt, EPA's Office of Research and Development.
This webinar will discuss EDDE Version 1 data availability, as well as the design and release timeline of EDDE Version 2.
The complexity of environmental exposures can be difficult to adequately capture in laboratory settings, necessitating the analysis of ‘real world’ samples for many contaminants including legacy and novel PFAS.
This presentation will cover the development of this modeling work, including how these models will help identify likely drivers of water quality improvement and degradation since the 1990s and highlight what local factors (e.g., soil characteristics, climate) enhance or diminish the loss of nutrients to waterways.
EPA recently released a national geospatial dataset of community water system service areas.
This presentation will discuss EPA’s emergency response efforts to the Maui wildfires and ongoing research to further understand contamination of water infrastructure. Research topics include uptake and release of contaminants in hot and cold pipes commonly used in premise plumbing and the effects of hot gasses and smoke on drinking water pipes.
The Handbook on Indicators of Community Vulnerability to Extreme Events: Considering Sites and Waste Management Facilities provides the conceptual framework and indicators approach. Join the webinar to learn more about the handbook and how to use the approach.
Presentations will focus on the initial monitoring requirement and analytical methods to be used under the regulation, the use of grant funding for small and disadvantaged community treatment programs, characterization, and risk communication and community engagement
This training webinar will demonstrate the EPA’s Equitable Resilience Builder (ERB) tool, which incorporates local knowledge and experience into the development of a resilience, hazard mitigation, or climate adaptation plan.
EPA ORD Harmful Algal Blooms, Hypoxia, and Nutrients Research Webinar - Coastal Dissolved Oxygen Dynamics and A Brief Introduction to the Hypoxia Task Force.
This presentation will discuss EPA’s first-of-its-scale Water Security Test Bed (WSTB), which replicates a section of a typical municipal drinking water piping system to better understand the behavior of water systems under real-world conditions.
Released in November 2023, the Fifth National Climate Assessment (NCA5) is the US Government’s preeminent report on climate change impacts, risks and responses. Led by the U.S. Global Research Program (USGCRP) and its 14 member agencies, including
