Dawg Days: A Flood Risk Assessment for the University of Georgia

This podcast comes to you from the University of Georgia, a campus that has stretched across the hills of Athens, Georgia since 1785. UGA is situated between the Upper and Middle Oconee Rivers, with tributary creeks flowing all across campus- even right under our football stadium!

This month, hosts Alysha and Todd are joined by fellow UGA colleague Zak Ruehman, Director of Engineering Services here at the Institute for Resilient Infrastructure Systems. Zak's team recently wrapped up an exciting cross-campus collaboration: a flood risk assessment across UGA's campus that shows the places and buildings most at risk.

Keeping the Dawg Walk from becoming... a Doggie Paddle?

Zak's Haiku:
Preparation first
Absorb the punch gracefully
Ready to adapt
