This is a multi-disciplinary community of scientists who study the effects of wildfire disturbance on the built and natural environment. The mission is to understand natural processes such as infiltration, rainfall-runoff, erosion, sediment and chemical transport, and water quality effects. The focus is on obtaining field-based measurements that can be used to improve or develop models for use by emergency, land and water supply managers as tools for decision making.

The Coastal Storm Modeling System (CoSMoS) makes detailed predictions (meter-scale) over large geographic scales (100s of kilometers) of storm-induced coastal flooding and erosion for both current conditions and future SLR scenarios, and in many locations, there are additional products for long-term shoreline change, cliff retreat, and groundwater hazards.  Resulting projections for future climate scenarios (sea-level rise and storms) provide emergency responders and coastal planners with critical storm-hazards information that can be used to increase public safety and mitigate physical damages to reduce risk, and more effectively manage and allocate resources to increase resilience in response to a changing climate...
Our mission is to provide , timely, reliable, impartial scientific information to our local, state, tribal, and federal partners so they can efficiently manage the water resources within their jurisdictions. Our data and research also help to protect the citizens of Idaho against floods, droughts, and other natural hydrologic hazards. Our science focuses on four basic areas of data collection and research: Surface water resources including rivers, lakes, and reservoirs Groundwater resources, both cold water and geothermal Water quality Water use and availability
