Kernel density distributions of census tract-level cooling degree days from May through September 2013 in Fahrenheit by race/ethnicity across the climate regions of New York State. Cooling degree days are calculated with a threshold of 65°. White = Non-Hispanic White, Hispanic = Hispanic/Latino of any race, Black = Non-Hispanic Black, Asian = Non-Hispanic Asian.

Circle color indicates the number of FEMA flood insurance claims by community. FEMA 100-year flood modeled inundation depths overlain in red, FEMA-reported topographic wetted index reported in light blue. Preliminary HEC-RAS model results, calibrated using community-based monitoring (orange squares for cameras, yellow triangles for pressure transducers) for a 0.5

Austin Multi-hazard Risk Index (flood + wildfire + heat + social vulnerability). The multi-hazard index previously computed utilized non-remote sensing, City-based data. An objective of the current project is to produce a similar index integrating remote sensing and socio-economic data. The current index shows there are clear spatial patterns with higher multi-hazard risk located in environmental justice communities in Austin.
