  • Description:
    A need for continued support in tackling climate change with an emphasis on sea-level rise (SLR) has been highlighted across the northern Gulf of Mexico (nGOM). With SLR in the nGOM projected to be around 25% greater than the global average [1], there will be significant ecological, economical, and cultural impacts if coastal decision-makers are not able to take effective adaptive action. Specific needs to be addressed were identified through a series of recent engagement efforts throughout the region. The Northern Gulf of Mexico Sentinel Site Cooperative (Cooperative), a partnership of local, regional, and national organizations and agencies working on SLR resilience, had an annually-updated Implementation Plan that included identified needs and gaps around SLR resilience. Further, in 2020 the Mississippi-Alabama Sea Grant Consortium, Gulf of Mexico Alliance, and the Gulf of Mexico Climate and Resilience Community of Practice each undertook engagement activities with their stakeholders and partners. All three groups received overwhelming feedback indicating partners are looking for support around understanding, planning for, and implementing projects related to SLR resilience. Requests through those efforts included technical support, enhanced information regarding the cost-benefits of SLR adaptation efforts at multiple scales, support in prioritizing SLR resilience projects, and educating and engaging with coastal residents to increase salience of SLR resilience needs in the region.
